Tim Gajser has finally returned to the winning ways this weekend at Afyonkarahisar, counting for the MXGP of Turkiye after securing a 2-1, which meant a total of 47 points
‘I felt confident coming into this weekend and once I rode the track, I knew it was going to be a good weekend. Even though the storm meant we didn’t race yesterday [saturday], I had the first gate-pick and that really helped me get two good starts on my Honda CRF450R, giving me the opportunity to lead the races early on’, the slovenian began to say in a statement, he who got to win his first motto of the season so far.
Gajser then spoke of his race one and then about his second:
–The first race I had arm-pump so I had to settle for second, but race two I was just feeling so good on the bike. I had a really good lead, and even though I made a mistake, I was able to stay in front and then pull out a gap all over again. A big thank you to all the team, my girlfriend Spela and all the fans who have supported me this year when things haven’t gone my way. I’m really happy to show everyone that I am back and now I’m really excited for the final two rounds.
