Team Suzuki ready for Hawkstone!
With one of the best rider line-ups in years the HIMX team are very much looking forward to the 8th February. The team have secured the World and European Suzuki Team to race at Hawkstone Park (SY4 4NA) next weekend. The Suzuki World MXGP riders consisting of Clement Desalle and Kevin Strijbos plus Glenn Coldenhoff racing in the Suzuki Europe Motocross Team will all be racing at Hawkstone.
Suzuki World MXGP Team
Clement Desalle – “Hawkstone is very much an old circuit and a track I really enjoy racing it. I have managed to take the win there in the past and I really like racing there. It will be good to pick up racing again after my scaphoid injury and such a long winter of training.”
Kevin Strijbos – “Hawkstone Park is always a classic one on the calendar and it will be the first time behind a start gate in 2015. It’s a great track but it will be a huge difference to the ideal 20 degrees training conditions what we had in South California. I am excited to get there and get started.”
European Suzuki Team
Glenn Coldenhoff – “I’m really looking forward to Hawkstone Park, it’s going to be my first race in the new class. I’ve had a good winter so far, I have been training together with Kevin (Strijbos) pretty much the whole time and that has helped me a lot! It is always nice to ride at Hawkstone and especially now in the new class. I’m excited and can’t wait for some good racing!”
In the MX2 class HIMX have secured World Champion Jordi Tixier plus Tonkov – Ferrandis – Covington – Petrov – Sterry – Lenoir and top brit Ben Watson.
The MX1 class also has a fantastic line up including De Reuver – Simpson – Leok – Barr – Anderson – Ferris.
