KTM era dominante a Mantova la settimana scorsa e proverà in questo fine settimana in Portogallo, il momento è dalla loro parte. MXGP capoclassifica Antonio Cairoli da Red Bull KTM Factory Racing ha corso una gara quasi perfetta Mantova con 50 punti portati a casa, nonostante le difficili condizioni, mentre il suo concorrente Tim Gajser del Team HRC ha lottato con un errore dopo l’altro.
Track record di Cairoli qui è anche a suo favore vincendo in 5 occasioni precedenti con la più recente vittoria portoghese nel 2017.
MXGP ha visto una nuova figura sul podio a Mantova, Italia, sotto forma del rookie Pauls Jonass dalla Rockstar Energy Husqvarna. 2° posto, Jonass ha trasformato molte teste in quello che era solo il suo 5° GP in carriera che è ancora più sorprendente dopo un inverno difficile a causa di un infortunio. Jonass è stato leggermente in apprendimento sulla 450 a riconquistare la sua idoneità come la stagione avanzava. Il lettone ha corso anche qui nelle ultimi 2 stagioni, ma entrambi erano in MX2 dove ha finito 2 °e 5 °.
Monster Energy Yamaha Wilvo di MXGP Gautier Paulin ha preso il suo 3° podio del 2019 a Mantova, ma è capace di molto meglio. Paulin sembra essere continuamente in miglioramento man mano che guadagna fiducia come il comfort con la sua nuova moto. Con la sua nuova fiducia in entrambe le moto e il francese sarà alla ricerca di un breakout in Agueda prima di dirigersi verso il suo GP di casa una settimana più tardi.
Jonass’ Rockstar Energy Husqvarna compagno di squadra Arminas Jasikonis detiene attualmente il 4° nel Campionato MXGP a causa delle sue forti corse finora in questa stagione. Jasikonis ha dovuto lavorare in avanti attraverso il gruppo in passato, ma se riesce a farti una buona partenza ad Agueda aspettate di vedere il lituano sul podio. Anche se il #27 lottò nel 2018 con il 19° assoluto, è stato sul podio qui nel 2017, il suo miglior risultato di carriera, e ha preso la gara di qualifica nello stesso anno.
Notevole anche Monster Energy Yamaha Factory di MXGP Romain Febvre che torna a correre questo fine settimana ad Agueda, dopo aver sofferto di una frattura ad una caviglia prima della fermata del FIM Motocross World Championship 2019 in Patagonia-Argentina.
2018 MXGP del Portogallo MXGP Podium:
- Jeffrey Herlings
- Antonio Cairoli
- Tim Gajser
I punti MX2 li detiene Thomas Kjer Olsen da Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing ma ha perso una manciata di punti in Italia, mentre Red Bull KTM Factory Racing Jorge Prado ha continuato il suo record dominante e imbattuto. Prado si dirige verso il Portogallo ora a meno 7 punti verso.
Anche se Olsen ha perso punti prima di questa settimana la sua situazione avrebbe potuto essere molto peggio dopo l’avvio fuori dalla top 20 lo scorso fine settimana.
Mentre Olsen è riuscito a salvare il suo weekend F & H Kawasaki Henry Jacobi ha perso fuori alla follia Mantova. Il tedesco ha guidato eccezionalmente bene cercando linee che nessun altro osava e guadagnando terreno nel GP. La fortuna non era dalla parte di Jacobi, quando tutto è stato detto e fatto anche se, come un problema meccanico lo ha portato fuori gara.
Un altro pilota in cerca di rimbalzo di questa settimana è Red Bull KTM Factory Racing Tom Vialle che è uscito dalla gara di qualifica per la prima volta al comando, ma la sfortuna in gara 1 a Mantova lo mette out. Gara ottima con partenze dall’ultima scelta al cancello, così ora ci sarà la risposta del rookie francese alle avversità e sarà interessante vedere come egli si presenta ad Agueda per la prima volta nella MX2.
Riders che cercano di mantenere il vantaggio dalla loro parte questa settimana includono DIGA PROcross’ Davy Pootjes che ha segnato il suo primo podio MX2 sempre la scorsa settimana, dopo 4 anni nella categoria e il rookie Mitch Evans da Honda 114 Motorsports dopo aver segnato 4 ° assoluto a Mantova dopo una carica dall’esterno attraverso il campo.
Un altro pilota da tenere a mente è Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory di corsa Jed Beaton. Beaton è stato veloce a Mantova in alcuni dei giri più veloci in MX2, ma un incidente ha ostacolato i suoi risultati, più in particolare è però il podio che ha ottenuto qui la scorsa stagione che era, e per ora è ancora, solo il secondo della sua carriera.
2018 MXGP del Portogallo MX2 Podium:
- Jorge Prado

Portugal Prepped for MXGP
AGUEDA (PORTUGAL) 15 May 2019 – Just days after the FIM Motocross World Championship took on Mantova, the series now heads West to the Iberian Peninsula for this weekend’s 2019 MXGP of Portugal. Round 6 of the MXGP season will return to Agueda for the third season in row.
The last two years have provided Portuguese fans with plenty to cheer for and as a rider favorite this weekend will once again roar with both bikes and spectators. Situated between Portugal’s two largest cities, Lisbon and Porto, the city of Agueda will see the world best motocross riders descend on its soil for racing this Saturday and Sunday including the riders of the FIM Women’s Motocross World Championship and FIM Europe’s EMX2T championship presented by FMF Racing.
The EMX2T Presented by FMF Racing riders are led from Mantova and into Portugal by Verde Substance KTM’s Brad Anderson although his longtime competitor Mike Kras from Team Ecomaxx Fuels has the momentum. While Anderson leads the points, it was Kras that took the overall win in Mantova taking out 10 points of the 20 that Anderson led by after round 1 in Matterley Basin.
Meanwhile the WMX championship is led by Belgium’s Amandine Verstappen after taking the opening win of 2019 in Valkenswaard. Verstappen will however face heavy competition such as Nancy van de Ven and Larissa Papenmeier but BIKE IT DRT Kawasaki’s Courtney Duncan may be the biggest threat. Duncan’s speed is evident as she took the dominant race 1 win in the Netherlands before crashing hard in race 2 resulting in 4thoverall.
KTM was dominant in Mantova last week and heading into this weekend in Portugal momentum is on their side. MXGP points leader Antonio Cairoli from Red Bull KTM Factory Racing rode a nearly flawless Mantova race to take 50 points home despite the challenging conditions while his title competitor Tim Gajser from Team HRC’s struggled with one mistake after another.
Cairoli’s track record here is also in his favor winning the GP on 5 previous occasions with the most recent Portuguese win being in 2017. Racing here 12 times 11 of them resulted in a podium with his worst result being 5thway back in 2004. Gajser however has only race here the past two seasons scoring 6th in 2017 and 3rd last year.
MXGP saw a new podium finisher in Mantova, Italy in the form of rookie Pauls Jonass from the Rockstar Energy Husqvarna. Jonass’ 2nd place performance turned many heads in what was only his 5th career MXGP race which is even more surprising after a difficult winter due to injury. Jonass has been slowly adjusting to the 450 machine and regaining his fitness as the season progresses. The Latvian also raced here the past 2 seasons, but both were in MX2 where he finished 2nd and 5th.
Monster Energy Wilvo Yamaha MXGP’s Gautier Paulin made his 3rd podium appearance of 2019 in Mantova but appeared to feel he was capable of much better. Paulin seems to be continually improving as he gains confidence as comfort with his new machine. With his new confidence in both the bike and himself the Frenchman will be looking for a breakout rode in Agueda before heading to his home GP a week later. While the last 2 years have resulted in 12th he took MXGP overall at this venue in 2013.
Jonass’ Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Teammate Arminas Jasikonis currently holds 4th in the MXGP Championship as a result of his consistently strong rides so far this season. Jasikonis has had to work forward through the pack in the past several rounds of racing but if he can snag a good start in Agueda expect to see the Lithuanian on the podium. Though the #27 struggle in 2018 with 19th overall, he was on the podium here in 2017, his best ever career finish, and he took the qualifying race win the same year.
Additional riders to keep an eye on are the Standing Construct KTM boys of Max Anstie, Ivo Monticelli, and Glenn Coldenhoff plus the Belgians; Monster Energy Kawasaki Racing Team’s Clement Desalle and Honda SR Motoblouz’s Jeremy Van Horebeek.
Anstie and Monticelli suffered bad luck while riding strong in Mantova adding to their fire and determination this weekend while Coldenhoff scored his first top 5 of the year last time out. As for the Belgian’s both Desalle and Van Horebeek are question mark while they mend from surgery during the break following Trentino.
Notable also that Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP’s Romain Febvre returns to racing this weekend in Agueda after he sufferedn a broken ankle at the first stop of the 2019 FIM Motocross World Championship in Patagonia-Argentina.

MX2 points leader Thomas Kjer Olsen from Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing lost a handful of points in Italy while Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Jorge Prado continued his dominant and undefeated record. Prado heads to Portugal now 7 points down but as they double race winner last year both history and momentum are on his side to reclaim the red plate this Sunday.
Although Olsen lost points prior to this week his situation could have been much worse after starting outside the top 20 last weekend. In the bigger picture Olsen’s fight through the carnage and podium result last week could perhaps be championship defining later in the season. Racing in the Portuguese GP the past 2 seasons TKO performed well scoring 4th in 2017 and 2nd last year.
While Olsen managed to salvage his weekend F&H Racing Kawasaki’s Henry Jacobi lost out to the Mantova madness. The German rode exceptionally well trying lines no one else dared and gaining ground in the process. Luck wasn’t on Jacobi’s side when all was said and done though as a mechanical issue took him out of the race.
Another rider looking to rebound this week is Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Tom Vialle who crashed out of Qualifying before again facing misfortune in race 1 at Mantova. The rookie Frenchman’s response to adversity will be interesting to watch as he takes on Agueda for the first time in MX2.
Riders looking to keep momentum on their side this week include Team DIGA Procross’ Davy Pootjes who scored his first ever MX2 podium last week after 4 years in the category and rookie Mitch Evans from Honda 114 Motorsports after scoring 4thoverall in Mantova following a charge from outside the top 20 through the field.
Another rider to keep in mind is Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Jed Beaton. Beaton was fast in Mantova putting in some of the quickest laps in MX2 but a crash hindered his results, more notably though is the podium he achieved here last season which was, and for now still is, only the second of his career.
2018 MXGP of Portugal MX2 Podium:
- Jorge Prado
- Thomas Kjer Olsen
