Viewpoint: Aleksandr Tonkov

A big catch up with Aleksandr Tonkov.

Published

on

[Ed. Note: This interview was conducted late last year. It has now been confirmed that Aleksandr Tonkov  will race in Australia with the MEGA Bulk Fuels Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team.]

MX Vice: Obviously you have been in the news a fair bit recently with everything that has gone on away from the track. Could you just explain what has happened exactly?

Aleksandr Tonkov: Well, not much has happened recently! I have just been to the gym today. Like I have said before, I was with my friends in Prague and I did not have much to do due to my back and hand injuries. I could not train, as even running was not an option. I had two broken vertebra. I was chilling, but excited to fly to see my family for a couple of days here in Russia.

I flew over the border and they stopped me to ask what was on my passport. I did not know; it was just a stamp that they put on when you pass through the border. They said that it was not real, so I asked why and they pointed at the date. The date was one or two months in front. I think this was in June and the stamp said October or November. That was the problem, so they asked how I got it. I said someone like him, who works on the borders, did it. A problem started from here, as they were asking how it happened and whether it was a fake document or not.

It is still bullsh*t – we tried to fix it. It is getting closer and we have some solutions. It is not easy, especially with all the political sh*t that it coming around. I see some ways. I will be late, for sure; even if I am in Europe again I will be a little bit late for the first race. I’ll be able to do it, but for the preparation and stuff it will not be good. I will try everything to be at the races.

This life is like a dream for a guy who stopped his career, you know, as there is so much snow for snowboarding and all the girls. I have been missing it a lot actually. I have lived in Europe for eleven years and just spent a couple of weeks at home, but now I have been at home for five months. The life is not so bad, but I still feel like I am not done in motocross.

Even now we are still training in the gym. I have been riding on the bike in Moscow sometimes, but now it is impossible because it is minus fifteen and snowing. We are trying to keep myself fit and ready, because I am still thinking that I’ll be able to fix this problem as soon as possible. It is going to take some time, one or two months, but we have two solutions. If one of them works, it’ll be one or two months. I cannot wait to try and fix these problems.

The wrong stamp that was on your passport was down to whoever was working at the airport at the time. This has nothing to do with you at all, right?

I just wanted to pass the airport and go back home. It is not something that I can do – it is just a stamp. I am just a guy who rides a bike, you know! It is not my business to do the stamps. I just wanted to go back home. It was not like I had the wrong documents or anything; I had nothing to do with that. It was not a problem with my documents, but my stamp. They think it is something that I made myself. How can I do that if I am riding my bike? It is kind of bullsh*t.

We cannot explain it to these people. I am trying, but they look at it and say that it is not real. They said that I have to go back to Russia and if I can fix the problem, then I’m lucky, but if not I have to live inside Russia for the next few years. China, America or something like that does not matter, but I cannot do it in the European Union.

It must be frustrating for you to hear all the rumours that are going around? A lot of people are saying that you were at fault in all of this.

I do not care what the people say. They are always going to say something, but I am happy that they are still talking! The worst situation is when they stop talking and forget you already. It is good as long as they talk! To feel like you can lose everything that you have been working for because of one stupid stamp is bad, you know? It is not like I killed somebody – that I could understand. I just wanted to go back home, but now my career could be over. It is just a sh*t situation, for sure, I never thought my career would stop like this. I hope that my career is not going to be over, but the situation is not so nice.

A strong start saw Tonkov run third in the MX2 series early on.

ConwayMX

Do you have a plan in place with those around you to get through the problem then? Do you know what you need to do?

I need to prepare my documents – there is a lot of paperwork. At the moment I am back home where I live, but I do not have much to do. I cannot do it! I just can try to bring the papers, but they have to go to all the people like the government. I am just waiting until the papers are ready, then we can make our last step and see if it is going to work out.

I am waiting for some papers from Europe still also, because we have another solution. We have some solutions and we are going to try everything. I hope one of them is going to work! We’ll just see. In the new few months I just have to work on myself and enjoy the life, because there is not too much else to do.

Based on what you said earlier, it sounds like the best case scenario in all of this is that within one or two months it could be sorted out? Obviously then you would be able to race every GP in 2017.

Yeah! That could happen for sure. If I go to Europe then I could do every GP no problem. If not, maybe I could just do the overseas ones! That is bullsh*t for the teams and stuff. I am still trying to fix it, because I don’t believe that I am going to stop my career because of the sh*t mistake someone made on my passport. I don’t even want to think about that! It is what it is and now we have to think like this. There are so many people involved in it already and they are trying to help me, but even they are struggling to fix it. I see that and I am like ‘sh*t, it sounds like a really big problem.’ We will never give up and try until the end.

Obviously that is the best outcome, but the worst thing that could happen would be for you to miss two or three years?

Yeah. For sure the worst case is that for the next three years I cannot go into Europe. After one year everyone already forgets you and will not take you, especially in the MXGP class. It is so close, so tight and the guys are so fast. If you are not there for one or two years then you better start working.

Tonkov landed on the podium in Thailand, thanks to a second and fourth.

ConwayMX

With that in mind, have you even considered hanging up the boots? Could you race somewhere else, like America?

In America I have some ideas. I don’t want to really go there, because then I have to start from the bottom again. I have to start everything again with new people, new tracks and everything. In Europe I feel like I’m at home. If I need something I know where I need to go and what I need to do. If I go to America everything is new again and I do not want to risk that, because Europe feels like a second home. Louis Vosters from Wilvo is like my father, so I feel at home.

If I go to the USA it would not be easy on me mentally and I would not do good in supercross, so no one would want me anymore. I am not sure how good I am at supercross, because I have never ridden it, so there are so many questions that I have. When I put it together I feel like I do not really want to do it. At the same time I do not want to stop, you know, so I am really going to try and fix this problem to go back to Europe. If I am going to ride, I will ride there.

I also do not want to ride the Russian Championship with twenty people on the start gate. All the people from Russia who can ride a bike want to ride in Europe. The sport is so small in Russia and riding for one hundred euros a month is not the goal – that is not what I have been working towards for so long.

This really has happened at the worst possible time, right? You would really want a full off-season to prepare for your first season on the 450F.

Actually I have really been looking forward to going up to MXGP. I like to ride the big bike, either a 350F or 450F doesn’t matter. I feel like it is more my style. I ride much more smooth and safer on the 450F, which is kind of a strange thing. I feel like that and that it is more my style. That is why I have always been looking forward to next season.

After June, everything has changed completely though. Now I am not thinking about 450F suspension testing or anything, I am just thinking about how I can get to Europe and ride a stock bike. I don’t care! Things change so fast in life that you don’t even expect it.

I am sat here discussing things with my family and parents, and you just cannot believe how quickly things can change. You know what you are going to do tomorrow and that next month you are going to get your salary and everything, then they just take everything that you and your family have been working for away. It is what it is. We are cannot really go against the European Union, because I am just a guy from Siberia. We are going to try and fix it still.

If you cannot race in Europe next year, would you consider just doing the first four flyaway events or the Russian GP?

I am not going to say something one hundred percent, but I do not think it is a good idea. I am definitely going to try and come to Qatar to support some guys, even if I don’t ride. I will want to see my friends like Louis too, as well as everyone I have worked with through the years. My brother is still working with the team and he has a new rider already! That has made me also sick! Now he works already with another rider, whilst I am sat here in Russia, and it is like ‘oh sh*t’ [laughs]. I am happy that he has a job that he likes, but if I get there then we will be working together again and making sure that people don’t forget our name!

It must be nice to have the support of Louis from Wilvo? I am sure that is a massive help to you through this difficult time.

I think that if I can fix the problem then we will fix something so that I can ride. Louis has a team and opportunity, but maybe I will have to find some Russian sponsors to help. I am not even looking for a salary or something; I am just looking forward to being able to ride. Now I cannot speak to the teams and say something, because I am not sure myself whether I will be there or not.

If I come over at a time like the end of the December, all the teams and budgets will be gone. You cannot even ask for something! That is why I have to look for some people who are going to help me to do the season for free. I would just ride the bike and do what I like to do and then, if I do it good, maybe I’ll be able to get back on a salary and stuff in 2018. Even if I fix the problem it will be tough; it will not be a year where I am making money.

Site-Aleksandr-Tonkov-2-1
The best outcome is that Tonkov could be back in Europe in a couple of months.

ConwayMX

You have been riding and training, like you said, so does that mean the injuries you had this season are all fine now?

It is better, for sure. I still struggle with my back, as sometimes it does not feel too comfortable. All the bones are good, but I just need to work on some muscles and ligaments. Actually not too many people know, but the injury was pretty big! I broke two of my vertebrae. It was actually pretty crazy and stupid to ride the races, because I did not make any training and just went from race to race. That is why I struggled in some races. I was thinking that it was my last year in MX2 and I wanted to try and do everything to be there until the end.

In the end, I did like five races with broken bones and it was really tough, then the people sent me home! If I knew that they were going to send me to Russia I would not have taken so many risks for my health! It is really sh*t for my health. If I had another big crash on my back, it would have been even worse. I took this risk and then they sent me home. The team and everything worked really hard, so I could not tell them that I could not race just because of a little crack in my bone. I try everything to be at the races and with the crew.

If the worst happens and you cannot return to Europe until 2019, are you certain that this will not be the end of your career and one day you will race again?

The problem is that if you do not have good support you are not going to be able to do something. You can ride around in the top ten or twenty, but even top ten is difficult now. All of the factory teams are in the top ten! Riding around between fifteenth and twentieth is not the goal of my life. To go and race in MXGP, you have to have a good team behind you. It is really expensive at the moment with so many overseas races and stuff! The goal is to try to fix the problem and go to race with Wilvo. I believe in this guy and that he would put one hundred percent into something.

If not, I don’t see many reasons to go back and buy a bike in the shop to make something. One person cannot beat a factory, as the level is so high. If you are not there for one year or something, it is difficult to get the teams to believe that you can ride a good bike again with a good trainer. You never know, but if I say that I have stopped then I will stop. It is not like I will retire then one month later you’ll see me riding again. I think it is a serious decision, because if you stop riding then you have to work somewhere.

In Russia now the prices of food and things are getting higher, so you need to make money. The money I made from motocross will be over one day, you know? You have to live and you have to do something. If you stop in motocross you have to find a full-time job, open a business or be lucky to make something that gives you so much money that you can travel to see all the races overseas!

It is still a big question mark. Even now I am thinking that maybe I need to start work or open a business, but I still believe that I am going to go back to Europe and ride a bike. That is why I am not really moving at the moment. I hope that one day I can ride and get money every month from that. I am not really a fan of sitting in one place; I need to move otherwise I go crazy. Even now, I need to move to try and fix the problem!

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.
