With temperatures nearly matching those at the previous two GPs in Indonesia, the daunting slopes of the Loketske Serpentiny circuit presented an even tougher challenge than usual for the riders, and with an incredible crowd on hand to add to the intensity, the MXGP of Czech Republic gave us a memorable weekend for round 13 of the MXGP World Championships!
With some overnight rain adding to the brilliant track preparation, the circuit overlooking the beautiful town of Loket, on the western fringes of the country, stood up to the ordeal it was put through with over 250 riders giving their all over the two GP classes and multiple EMX races.
MXGP World Championship leader Tim Gajser claimed his first ever overall Grand Prix win at the classic Czech circuit, bouncing back from third in race one to claim the second race and victory on the day for Team HRC.
MX2 saw another epic battle throughout the leading positions, and ultimately the red plate holder Kay De Wolfprevailed to take his fifth GP win of the year for Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing, and extend his points lead over his teammate, and first race winner, Lucas Coenen!
