See how good the the Triumph and Mikkel Haarup started the MX2 world championship season with the new machine leading a GP moto and taking a podium in their first attempt at the pinnacle of motocross!
Haarup is one to watch this season…
Haarup had the following to say regarding his weekend:
“Yeah, it’s been a really amazing start to the season! A podium is perfect and a great way to start the year for myself, and Monster Energy Triumph Racing.
“My qualifying race was not so good, but I knew that I had the speed to run in the top three today. All through the off-season we have been building and building and what we’ve achieved today is the result of a lot of hard work by everyone involved.
“I felt comfortable on the bike all weekend and that was really important on a tricky track like this. Today we’ve shown what this bike is capable of and overall, I’m really happy with my performance.”
