Race Report: Prado loses dramatic Mantova to Seewer due to Yellow flag infringement as Gajser takes the MXGP championship lead!

Jorge Prado used intelligent consistency to take the overall win and gain big points in the MXGP world championship after inconsistency cost both Tim Gajser and Tony Cairoli, the Italian left bleeding after a lowly 15th in race two – but then they docked the Spaniard two places for jumping under a waved yellow flag and he lost the GP win!

In a big turn of events, Jeremy Seewer has now been awarded the GP victory, this after winning race one and passing early race leader Prado to control the race from the Spaniard with Cairoli in third. Tim Gajser didn’t have the race he wanted and could only muster ninth after a poor start.

But things turned around completely for Gajser in race two after he got a good start in third behind Febvre and holeshot man Prado. Febvre searched constantly for a way around Prado but could not make the move and in doing so allowed a gap for Gajser to zap past!

Tim then, in contrast to Febvre, made a decisive move on Prado to take the lead and pull away for the win while a frustrated Febvre remained behind Prado for the rest of the moto!

But both riders got dock two positions along with Gautier Paulin, due to not rolling a jump on a waved yellow flag, giving the win to Jeremy Seewer! Seewer had earlier crashed while in fifth, but has now been awarded third at the expense of Febvre, Paulin and Prado after originally finishing sixth to claim an unlikely GP win – and is now just 16 points off the championship lead!

Behind all that action it was a dramatic moto for Cairoli who took an average start then caught caught in a que on lap one on the inside of a turn, that left him back in 20th.

Cairoli pulled through was eyeing a top ten result only to lose his goggles and be forced into the goggle lane to get a new pair. That dropped him back to 15th and although he got back charging again, she started falling off the pace barely holding on to his position with his chest covered in blood.

It means Gajser now leads the championship by five points over Cairoli.

In MX2 it was a case of so close yet so far for Ben Watson in Mantova who was one frustrating pass away from his first ever GP moto win and his first ever overall win.

Instead it was Jed Beaton who took his first moto win in a pulsating race two with teammate Thomas Kjer Olsen taking the overall Grand Prix win in a crazy topsy-turvy day for MX2!

In race one Tom Vialle ran away with the win while championship rival Jago Geerts suffered a bad start then crashed passing Boisrame for fifth to eventually come home a disappointing 11th.

In race two Geerts blew it again, crashing twice to take 8th, but Vialle rode the must puzzling race of the year to drop from 7th to 14th without even crashing – and yet, thanks to Geerts mistakes, still comes away with a 30 point lead in the championship!

That left the GP win up for grabs and, after a British 1-2 in the opening laps with Watson leading Mewse, Jed Beaton came past the two of them to take the lead.

Watson though wouldn’t give up and was on Beaton’s back wheel with two to go. If Ben won the race he won the GP but the Brit just couldn’t quite get close enough to really put the move on and had to settle for second in the race and third overall, leaving a jubilant Beaton to celebrate a hard fought moto win and Thomas Kjer Olsen a surprised overall winner!
