Motocross: Kevin Horgmo på fjerde totalt i VM!

OK. Vi innrømmer det. Det har vært litt feriestemning og dette skulle vært ute for flere dager siden.

Sjølvaste Kevin Horgmo presterte faktisk å plasse på fjerde totalt da VM-serien ble avsluttet forrige helg.

Dette er intet annet enn sensasjonelt. Å hevde seg helt i toppen i MX2 på høyeste nivå, det er som om Norge skulle kommet til minst finale i fotball-VM. Motocross er enormt i Europa.

Vi håper å komme tilbake med et intervju, men foreløpig kan man sjekke ut teamet/Kevins pressemelding her:

Kevin Horgmo fourth in the World Championship MX2 2022F&H Kawasaki Racing Team’s Kevin Horgmo secured fourth place in the FIM World MX2 Motocross Championship in the final round of the series at Afyonkarahisar in Turkey.The Norwegian immediately found a better rhythm than the previous day to advance into the top-ten from a thirteenth-placed start in race one before a small error on lap four pushed him back to thirteenth again. Regrouping quickly he was back to tenth within two laps and advanced to his eventual ninth five laps from the finish. He again showed good race pace in the second moto to quickly move into eighth before a slip pushed him back to fifteenth. Quickly regaining his composure he again captured ninth four laps from the end to be classified ninth overall. More significantly his efforts ensured fourth place in the final series standings in his first full season of GP racing with Kawasaki.

Kevin Horgmo: “It was a tough day and I’m a little disappointed about my results but let’s look at the positives; we can be happy with our fourth place in the championship and I had some good speed in the motos, just bad starts and a couple of falls so I couldn’t make it happen. Now I’m looking forward to the Nations; it will be my first time in America so for sure it will be a good experience and I hope Team Norway can do well.”
