Race Report: Nagl and Ferrandis top of the box at MXGP Argentina

Race Report: Nagl and Ferrandis top of the box at MXGP Argentina

The racing that was yielded here at round three of the FIM Motocross World Championship is pure authentication that MXGP 2015 is the best ever season of motocross. In front of a huge and extremely energetic crowd and on the type of track most riders could only dream of, wide and flowing yet curiously technical and challenging, Red Bull IceOne Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Max Nagl and Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team’s Dylan Ferrandis took surprise victories.

A holeshot for the number twelve is starting reap bad news for the rest of the competition in MXGP as Red Bull IceOne Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Max Nagl polished off another holeshot and check out combo to win MXGP race two and the overall here at MXGP of Patagonia Argentina. A very humble Nagl said, “I didn’t expect to win but we made some bike changes and I changed my lines because the track was really tricky. There were so many options for lines and for me this is really nice and important for a motocross track so we don’t have to follow everybody. It makes awesome racing.”

Rockstar Energy Suzuki World MXGP’s Clement Desalle is starting to carve a reputation for consistency as he stood on the second step of the podium for the third consecutive time this year. Although Desalle actually logged the same points as Nagl today, the overall winner is determined by the result of the second race which left Max Nagl as the round victor thanks to his race two win.

 

It was a pretty crazy day for Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Antonio Cairoli who loved the track here in Villa la Angostura. The defending MXGP champion set the fastest lap in race one but on his last lap charge for the lead clipped his foot peg while scrubbing and pitched himself off the bike. Thankfully, he was okay and still managed to finish in second place which he duplicated in race two for third overall.

Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team’s Ryan Villopoto was looking fast, as usual, but didn’t quite have the pace to stand on the podium here at MXGP of Patagonia Argentina. Nevertheless, a pair of fourths and fourth overall is still a solid effort.

Although a sixth and seventh was probably not the result Team HRC’s Gautier Paulin was looking for, every point counts in this eighteen round championship and a fifth place is nothing to screw your nose up at.

Meanwhile the Yamaha Factory Racing Yamalube’s duo of Jeremy Van Horebeek and Romain Febvre went bar to bar all weekend to round out the top seven in that order.

It was a day to remember for Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team’s Dylan Ferrandis who took full advantage of situation at hand to take an impressive victory in race one followed up with a hard fought second in race two for his first ever grand prix victory. “It’s amazing, for sure a great moment for me and my crew,” the Frenchman mustered in obvious happiness immediately after the last race.

Meanwhile an extremely smart mind-set is paying dividends for Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Pauls Jonass as he landed himself on the second step of the podium for the second time this year. “I felt so good on this track, I had so much fun. In the last race I knew whether I finished second or third I would still be second overall so I didn’t take any risk. Second overall is good for me and I am happy with it.”

 

Like Ferrandis, Rockstar Energy Suzuki Europe’s Jeremy Seewer also left the grand prix of Patagonia Argentina with a career best finish. The Swiss star on the rise banked two fifths this weekend to round off the podium in third, “I worked my whole life to be at the top of this sport. It’s an amazing feeling to be on the podium for the first time, I had two solid races with two fifths which normally isn’t enough to be on the podium but on a track like this it is important to be consistent, so it paid off.”

Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team’s Thomas Covington is becoming a solid member of the top five with yet another fourth overall, while a so-so day in the office left Honda Gariboldi’s Tim Gajser in fifth.

As for the MX2 championship points leader, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Jeffrey Herlings had a massive crash in race one which left his bike mangled and un-rideable. Despite the magnitude of his crash and a bruised ankle The Bullet salvaged his red plate with an impressive victory in race two.
