Nagl to be rider and trainer in 2019

Max Nagl is set to be very busy in 2019. Not only will he be competing in the European rounds of the MXGP World Championship but he’s also announced that he’s going to be trainer for Jonathan Bengtsson in 2019. 

Bengtsson’s plans also include the European rounds of the MXGP World Championship in 2019. The Swede will be a privateer but receive support from Scandinavian Racing Sport.

As for Nagl, if he does a good job training Bengtsson then becoming a trainer in the paddock when he hangs up his boots could be a real option in the future. The German will still want to get good results for Sarholz KTM in 2019 though!
