Jeffrey Herlings of the Red Bull KTM Factory team won both motos of the second round of the Dutch Masters of Motocross in Oldebroek on Monday. Herlings remains unbeaten in the championship.
The rider from Oploo is getting in better shape and he immediately showed this in time training. Herlings went around the track at a high pace and set the fastest time.
A good start in the first moto ensured that he immediately took second place. Herlings built up his race calmly and was able to take advantage of a crash by the leader in the race. When he took the lead in the race, he set a high pace and controlled the race from then on. Herlings won the race and was ready to do it again in the second moto.
In the second moto it was Herlings who managed to take the lead. His rhythm was immediately good and together with Romain Febvre he went around the track at a high pace. Herlings didn’t drop a stitch and won the second moto as well.
