STANDING CONSTRUCT HUSQVARNA FACTORY RACING STAR RACES FORWARD.
MATTIGHOFEN, AUSTRIA – July 18, 2022 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Following a two-week break in the schedule, the Husqvarna Factory Racing stars tackled round thirteen of the 2022 FIM Motocross World Championship. The iconic track of Loket hosted the race, which was dubbed the Grand Prix of Czech Republic, as well as thousands of fans who had travelled from across Europe to see Pauls Jonass, Brian Bogers, Kay de Wolf and Maxime Grau in action.
Standing Construct Husqvarna Factory Racing pilot, Pauls Jonass, continued to show impressive pace on his FC 450, even though a crash threatened to halt his charge in moto one. Jonass was caught in a fall in turn one and faced a mountainous challenge on a fast-paced track, but charged to twelfth and was the quickest man on track at points. Jonass was luckless again in the second stint, as a crash early on forced him to retire prematurely. ’41’ was still classified in sixteenth overall and is eager to rebound at the next event.

Bogers was thirteenth on the opening lap and not too far from the top eight when the chequered flag waved. The second moto followed a similar pattern, as he started on the cusp of the top fifteen and worked his way into eighth at the chequered flag. Bogers’ fitness was on show as he made some passes late in the moto to eventually secure eighth in the overall classification.
Racing in the MX2 class on his Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing steed, Kay de Wolf showed brilliant speed from the moment that the event commenced. Charging to sixth was impressive in the first moto, as he was hindered by a slight bobble on the opening lap that stopped him pushing for a spot inside of the top three. A mediocre start did not help his cause in the last stint, as he had to work his way from the edge of the top ten to seventh at the chequered flag. A consistent 6-7 scorecard put him sixth overall on the day.
Seeing as EMX250 did not feature on the Grand Prix of Czech Republic schedule, Maxime Grau stepped up and made his debut in the MX2 class. Grau made the most of such an exciting opportunity and showed top-ten speed at different points. Fifteenth was the position that he claimed in the opening moto and he backed that up by taking sixteenth in moto two, which put him in the same position in the overall…
