Brazilian Wrap

Published

on

In what can only be described as the complete opposite to the Mexican GP one week earlier, the FIM Motocross World Championship visited Beto Carrero, Brazil for the fifth round of the 2012 series. When riders arrived at the circuit in the week – it resembled something that could be considered paradise for motocross riders. With big jumps, flowing corners and a theme park on the outskirts, just to add to the appeal. Unfortunately, the excitement that was formed around seeing how racing would turn out on the Justin Barclay designed circuit was washed away – quite literally – by torrential rain Saturday night.

If there is one thing that mud races are notorious for, it’s producing surprise results, and both MX1 and MX2 delivered on that front, with three riders making a trip up onto the overall podium for the first time this year. For the second moto’s the track was in much better condition – although still far from perfect.  This was reflected in the lap times, as lap times in MX2 moto two were consistently better than moto one. With the fastest lap time of the race improving by six seconds, which proves the track did indeed get better as the day wore on. Whereas conditions for moto one were more ‘sloppy’, moto two could be considered more ‘claggy’ mud, making it hard work for the riders as it makes the bikes extremely heavy over the course of the moto.

Last week, I wrote that it was time for the rest of the contenders in MX1 and MX2 to start clawing back the points as series leaders Antonio Cairoli and Jeffrey Herlings were looking as though they were starting to break away. Coming into Brazil, they had momentum on their side, and they put it too good use in Saturday’s qualifying races. Both Red Bull Factory KTM riders dominated their qualifiers, leading from start to finish. Herlings was most impressive eventually winning by twenty-five seconds in the MX2 qualifier, despite Searle starting right with him in second.

So already prior to the points-paying races it was looking as though we might have an all orange affair up front. But, as always in Motocross, there are so many variables that can act as a spoiler in the results, and in Brazil, it was the rain. Following a handful of crashes, and off track excursions over the course of the two moto’s, Jeffrey Herlings ended the day with a twelfth and a third – and seventh overall. Most notably, his point’s lead shrank from what was forty points over his teammate, Jeremy Van Horebeek to just twenty over Tommy Searle.

The reason for such a decrease in the Dutchman’s points lead? Tommy Searle. The Brit was undoubtedly the best rider in the conditions, often riding smooth, calm and comfortable picking riders off one by one. Searle’s masterful riding saw him finish with two first places on the day, taking his second grand prix win of the year, and his first double moto win since the final round of the series back in 2008. Despite a couple of falls in the first race (one of which resulted in the Brit having to pull into pit lane for new gloves) Searle put his head down and clocked a handful of lap times quicker than anyone else on track. Eventually ending with his best lap time being just under two seconds quicker than anyone else. It was obvious he was most comfortable in the conditions.

The most surprising thing from the weekend was the two riders who joined him on the podium. As Christophe Charlier and Jose Butron climbed up onto the box for the first time in their careers. In the first moto, Charlier was the only rider who looked even close to pushing Searle, hounding Tommy for the entire race and even taking over the lead at one point – although it was short-lived, lasting only a lap. Christophe looked impressive once more in moto two, quickly inheriting second just two laps in, but a mistake relegated him to seventh, from there it was all about working his way up to fifth. Which in the end was good enough for second overall, a career best.

All season long, and even at the tale end of last year Spaniard Jose Butron has shown glimpses of his true potential, with some solid rides. On a bike, which you have to think is nowhere near as good as the riders around him (he’s already suffered three DNF’s this year). But in those races, he’s been mixing it up with established contenders, which is why; his overall podium in Brazil isn’t really surprising. Although after an eighth in moto one you would of thought his chances of getting on the podium were slim.

However, in the mud anything can happen, and it’s rare a rider will put in two very consistent results, so there was always a chance. The fact that he held off Searle for the amount of time that he did was a bit surprising. But he did look quite comfortable in the conditions of the second moto, most definitely one of the best in the field. It would be interesting to see what Butron can do on a top-level team, whatever happens however, I would say this isn’t the last we see of the DIGA Racing KTM rider up on the podium.

Much like Jeffrey Herlings, the MX1 championship leader, Antonio Cairoli struggled in the conditions, and lost a handful of points to his competitors. Cairoli has really been the only rider to score solid points in every moto thus far this year, but as already mentioned the two had their own problems in Beto Carrero. A ninth and an eighth over the two moto’s is most definitely not what the now five-time world champ was looking for. But, luckily for him, the two riders closest too him in the title chase prior to round five, Clement Desalle and Gautier Paulin didn’t have great days either.

Anyone familiar with the sport would know, the type of conditions witnessed in Brazil work in favour of a rider with a smooth style and natural ability, such as Christophe Pourcel’s. The Frenchman was simply dominant in the first moto, as he balanced his way through the lengthy ruts and slippery off cambers. Eventually winning by an astonishing one minute and twenty-nine seconds. The last time I can remember someone winning by such a margin in the mud is Ricky Carmichael in the AMA National at Millville in 2006 or before that Stefan Everts in any one of his very dominant mud rides. Either way you look at it, it’s an elite group of people that can negotiate the wet conditions so elegantly, and going by his first moto, Christophe Pourcel is one of them.

His second moto didn’t go as smoothly as the first, as after again leading a majority of the race he eventually relinquished the lead and dropped to fourth after a series of small, but crucial mistakes. Again it’s the end of the second moto, when Christophe looked his worst, although you can’t really look too much into that this time around, as in the mud, it’s a lottery.

David Philippaerts continued his climb to regain his former speed, and took second overall. His fitness is clearly where it needs to be, as in the first moto he moved forward from sixth at a consistent rate and never looked to be backing it down. However, he obviously didn’t have anything for Christophe Pourcel – no one did – but he appeared to have everyone else covered, in the first moto at least. He again had to work his way forward from the outskirts of the top ten, which had to have been tough. Everyone who rounded the first corner further back then second, would have just been covered in mud, and using all of their tear offs. So for a rider to overcome that, and eat roost for the duration of the race, but continue to gain positions is pretty impressive.

Third overall, was the Maxxis British Championship leader Kevin Strijbos, who seems to be looking a lot more like his former self. It’s been a bumpy road for the Belgian these past few years, but taking his first podium since the penultimate grand prix of the 2007 season, is a sign he’s improving. It’s really been ever since he climbed on the Factory Suzuki as a replacement rider at the tail end of last year that’s he’s started inching closer to the podium again, and he finally got it in Brazil! Hopefully this result won’t be his last, and the true Kevin Strijbos, a former title contender, will continue to show up at the next few rounds.

Xavier Boog was another rider that shined in the sloppy conditions – in the second moto at least. After a lowly sixteenth in moto one, Xavier wasn’t on many people’s radars as a possible winner of moto two, and with no previous wins under his belt most wouldn’t have predicted that he would run down Pourcel, and pull away to take a sensational moto victory. You could see the excitement from him, and his team as he crossed the finish line, although after his troubles in the first race he wasn’t able to climb onto the overall podium. He has most definitely proven to the Kawasaki Racing Team that keeping him on through 2012 was a good idea.

After an extremely disappointing second moto in Mexico, Gautier Paulin went to work in trying to claw back the points lost, and the mud looked like his best chance. Although he finished down in fourth overall, two of the riders ahead of him aren’t in a position to challenge for the title yet (Philippaerts is quickly making up ground in the points chase) so it wasn’t a bad result all things considered.

If not for a fall by Clement Desalle late in the first moto, Cairoli’s lead could have shrank even more but unfortunately the Belgian’s mistake meant he could only capture eight points in the first moto. In the second however, he was once again at the front end of the pack, and managed to stay there for the duration of the moto. He also found himself in the late race battle for the lead, involving himself, Boog, Strijbos and Pourcel. Although he came up just short, despite attempting to make a pass with two corners to go, he did finish second, to close down a measly five points on Cairoli in the title chase.  Once again, Clement leaves without a race win to his name thus far in 2012. The longer it takes, the harder it will become mentally, in my opinion it’s crucial that he wins a moto in the coming weeks.

For Shaun Simpson, the rain was probably the best scenario as it slowed the racing down considerably and forced riders to not jump the huge jumps in the centre of the track, meaning less of an impact on his shoulder injury sustained last week. At the beginning of the year his goal was top ten at every GP, and after a rough time in the two GP’s previous he achieved that in Beto Carrero, with a seventh and a twelfth through the two moto’s.

For the rest of the Brit’s, the Brazilian GP was quite successful also. Gariboldi Honda’s Max Anstie finished sixth overall, which was one of his better results so far this year, after a fourth and a seventh through the two motos. After spending most of his time in the USA in recent years, you think the sloppy conditions would be quite foreign too him, but he appeared to negotiate them quite well as he was up front in both moto’s. Jake Nicholls – who was feeling under the weather throughout the day’s action – finished a reasonable eighth overall, and the points he scored will be valuable in the title chase as at the moment he looks more than capable of getting into the top five in the championship standings.

One Brit who lined up in MX1, someone who most seem to forget about for most of the year, was Adam Chatfield. Having ridden just about every series worldwide, whether it is the British Championship, AMA Supercross series, or the Brazilian National Championship, Adam made his yearly appearance in Beto Carrero but the results surely weren’t what he was looking for, with two non-points scoring rides. Chatfield has been representing the UK in the Brazilian National Championship thus far this year, and currently sits second in the championship standings with one win to his name after four rounds.

Alfie Smith on the JK Racing Yamaha scored an impressive nine points over the two moto’s, to add to his three from the previous rounds. Alfie has been on the tour for a few years, and this year looks to be really improving in what could be described as one of the most competitive MX1 series in recent history.

There’s always one rider, whose results don’t reflect how good they were riding, in Beto Carrero that rider was Dean Ferris, of the Ice-One Racing Kawasaki team. Having finished a career best in the qualifying race, the Australian carried that form over to the drastically different conditions witnessed in the points paying races. Although in the results he finished a disappointing sixteenth overall, Dean was running second for half of the first race before the sloppy conditions bit him. In the second moto, he got a terrible start, and after again making a costly mistake pulled out after seven laps. The potential he showed alone proves that the decision to bring him over was a good one, as he is capable of running top three on his good days. He should only get better as the series goes on also, as he was left playing catch up after a pre-season injury forced him to miss the first round.

Beto Carrero marked the end of the South-American tour for 2012, although it’s fair to say it didn’t go as planned, with one round suffering from rider protests and the other basically a wash out. From here riders will travel back to the more familiar surroundings of Europe for the French GP in two weeks time, where the fight for the title will pick back up, and local hero Steven Frossard will once again try and ride through the pain of an injured knee, which again forced him out of the Brazilian GP.

For a lot of riders suffering from niggling injuries, the two week break should allow them time to heal up, and be at their best as the series heads into three consecutive weeks of racing.

Michelin MX Nationals – Race Report, Rnd 2 – Monster Mountain

Full report from packed event in South Wales

Published

on

Last weekend the new Monster Mountain facility staged its first event, round two of the Michelin MX Nationals powered by Milwaukee, and what an action-packed weekend it was! With almost 300 hundred riders keen to get on the new track and a tremendous crowd for the MX Nationals, both enjoyed the two days of fast and hot motocross action.

Words: Dick Law for Michelin MX Nationals | Featured Image: Michelin MX Nationals

If you haven’t seen the images and videos on social media, Monster Mountain is a USA- styled track set on top of a Welsh mountain. With months and months of hard, back-breaking work that involved moving hundreds of tons of earth with machines the size of a small house, the Monster Mountain track was born, and the scale of the project was mind-blowing. Once you have climbed up the mountain’s side to the peak, you enter a landscape that could be easily mistaken for Pala or even the moon.

The Leatt Pro MX1s were mainly about three riders, the Crendon Fastrack Honda pairing of Conrad Mewse and Josh Gilbert and Cab Screens Crescent Yamaha rider Harri Kullas. The winner would come from one of these riders, who have dominated the home racing scene all year.

Kullas got the holeshot at the start of the first combined MX1 and MX2 pro race but was quickly passed a quarter of the way around the opening lap by Mewse and then his teammate Gilbert, who had gated third, slipped by Kullas before the end of the lap. While this happened, John Adamson (ASA United GasGas) got cross threaded in one of the deep ruts and dropped from fourth to tenth.

Adamson’s teammate Ivo Monticelli, who was making a comeback from an injury he suffered at round one of the Revo series, took full advantage of his teammate Adamson’s problems and took over his fourth place as Jason Meara (JM 10 Moto-cycle Racing Honda), Tom Grimshaw (Chambers Racing), Charlie Putnam (SC Sporthomes Husqvarna), Jamie Carpenter (Cab Screens Crescent Yamaha), and Dan Thornhill (Chambers Racing) all moved up a place at Adamson’s expense.

The leading four riders of Mewse, Gilbert, Kullas, and Monticelli stayed in the same running order to the end of the race as Meara and Grimshaw fought over fifth place. The two riders changed position many times till, on lap eight, Meara suffered a mechanical failure, leaving Grimshaw to make fifth all his own.

Adamson was on a charge after his crash and fought back to sixth at the end of the race, while Putnam came off his machine, relegating himself back to thirtieth place.

The immense new track, with its long start straights and big jumps, and even an adverse camber turn, was always going to disadvantage the smaller Apico MX2 machines over the power of the Leatt MX1 machines, with Glen McCormick (Chambers Racing) being the first of the MX2s around turn one, followed by Jamie Wainwright (WPH/SBE/Redline KTM) and Carlton Husband (Phoenix EvenStrokes Kawasaki) as race favourite Charlie Cole (Blades Bikes Kawasaki) suffering a mechanical problem that saw him at the back of the pack with a lot of work to do.

Wainwright had passed McCormick to lead the MX2s by the end of the first lap as Husband slipped back three places. But, as the race continued, Husband upped his pace and repassed six other riders on his way to tenth in the race, but first MX2 home.

McCormick put on a last-lap charge and snatched a place from the hands of Wainwright as the pair finished eleventh and thirteenth on the track but second and third in the MX2s, as for the unlucky Cole. He regrouped and fought his way back from thirtieth to finish fifteenth in the race but fourth MX2 and the last person on the lead lap.

Kullas once again got the holeshot at the start of race two, and once again, Gilbert found a way past him by the end of the lap. Behind them, it was Grimshaw, Meara, Monticelli, Mewse and Carpenter.

Grimshaw took his time in the opening laps and slipped back to sixth. Mewse slid past Monticelli on the second lap to take over third place, with Meara relegated to fifth.

While Grimshaw and Carpenter fought over sixth place, the running order of Gilbert from Kullas, Mewse, Monticelli, and Meara stayed the same till the very last lap when Mewse used the backmarkers to snatch second place from Kullas, and with it second overall for the meeting. (MX Vice was witness to the incident that cost Kullas second place, where two MX2 riders fell in a rut that Harri had already committed to, leaving the Yamaha man to haul his bike out of the massively deep inside rut as Conrad tiptoed around the outside of them, probably laughing his head off!).

On the Apico MX2 side of race two, Cole had gated tenth but had Wainwright in his wheel tracks and McCormick two places further back as they battled for the MX2 lead amongst the bigger MX1 machines.

Wainwright & Cole battle for MX2 supremacy in race two. Cole won the event, but Wainwright leads the series!

After changing the lead with Wainwright several times, Cole established himself eighth on the track but first of the MX2s. Wainwright finished in tenth place for the second MX2, with McCormick third. Unfortunately, Husband didn’t get the start he wanted and didn’t seem to get going as he finished sixth MX2, behind Joe Brooks and Charlie Heyman (Tru7 Honda).           

With three race wins and a second place, Ben Edwards won the RFX expert MX1s from race one winner and wildcard rider Josh Waterman. Jayden Ashwell (AJP Geartec Husqvarna) was third, with Jay McCrum missing a podium position.

Ashley Greedy (Darjen Contractors Gas Gas) won his first three races in the RFX MX2s, but while in the lead of his fourth and final race of the weekend, he was passed by Jimmy Margetson (AJP Geartec Husqvarna) on his way to second overall, with Mathew Bayliss (Darjen Contractors Gas Gas).

Ash Greedy had a great weekend on home territory.

Wildcard rider Scott Elderfield won three out of his four races on his way to the Motoverde amateur MX1 overall, with race four winner Sean Wainwright (Fasteddy Racing Honda) second. Josh Greedy (Darjen Contractors Kawasaki) tied in third with Luke Mellows (Forty-Four Honda).

Wildcard riders took three out of the top four places in the Motoverde amateur MX2 class as Ben Clarke, with two wins and two third places, took the overall from race two winner Raife Broadley (723 Race Bikes Gas Gas) while the winner of the last race Wal Beaney was third, just five points behind the winner.

Tallon Aspden (LA Groundwork KTM), with three wins and a second place, won the Worx clubman MX1s from Darren Manning-Coe, who was second in all four of his races as Daniel Chapman, the winner of the last race of the weekend was third as Drew Lane just missed out on the podium by two points.

Sam Ongley (Fantic) won all four Spiral GFX clubman MX2 races from Matt Tolly and Charlie West.

In the youth Fly Futures MXY2s, Billy Askew (GTCi Revo Kawasaki) won all four races and remains unbeaten this year. Behind him, Domonic Newbury (426 Motorsport KTM) and Mackenzie Marshall (DK Offroad KTM) were separated by just three points as they finished the weekend in second and third overall.

Billy Askew (441) already has his nose in front of Domonic Newbury (404), Mackenzie Marshall (555) and Jak Taylor (22, WM Tatchell Husqvarna).

Reece Jones (SJP Moto Husqvarna) was third in his first race of the weekend, but from then on won the other three for first overall in the Fly MXY125s. Jake Walker (Mr T Racing KTM), who didn’t finish out of the top four all weekend, was second, with a race-three low score pushing Tyla Hooley (Fantic) down to third.

Josh Vail (SJP Moto Husqvarna), with two race wins, a second and a third place, took the overall win in the Syntol Big Wheel 85s with Jamie Keith (MBR X&P KTM), who didn’t finish out of the top three all weekend, second and Charlie Richmond third.

Josh Vail took the overall win in the Syntol Supermini Big Wheel class

With a couple of wins and two-second places, Joel Winstanley-Dawson (Techsource Racing KTM) won the Syntol small wheel 85s from race one winner Lucas Lee (Husqvarna) and Ollie Truman.
