Mike Kras scores a moto win at the Dutch MX3 Grand Prix in Valkenswaard
maandag 01 april 2013
Mike Kras of the Beursfoon Rockstar Suzuki Team came close of winning the Dutch MX3 Grand Prix in Valkenswaard last Monday. Mike took the holeshot in the first moto and controlled the race from start to finish. In the second moto he was fighting for the overall win but finished the race in third position which wasn’t enough to take the overall win.
After three days of training on the Suzuki RM-Z450 Mike was ready to go in Valkenswaard. In the free practice sessions things were going great for Mike and he set the fastest time in both sessions. In time practice he set the second fastest time and with this position he had a good gate pick in both motos on Monday.
In the first moto Mike took a great start and was leading the field going into turn one. He found his rhythm straight away and managed to make a gap over himself and the second place rider. When he had a gap of more than ten seconds he decided to take no unnecessary risks anymore and managed to win the race.
In the second moto he came out of the first lap in third position. In the beginning of the race he held on to this position but in lap five he dropped back to fourth position. This wasn’t for long because Mike was fighting back and worked his way by the second and third place riders. Mike needed to win the race to take the overall. He gave everything he had but in the closing stages of the race he made a mistake and lost second position and finished the moto in third position.
Overall he finished in second position in Valkenswaard. Michael Leib was with the team in Valkenswaard. Michael is recovering from his arm en wrist injury which he sustained during the West Coast Lites Supercross season but hopes to be back at the fourth round of the Dutch Open Championship Series in Rhenen on May, 9th. After this race he will race the European Grand Prix’s for the Beursfoon Rockstar Suzuki Team.
