Red Bull IceOne Husqvarna Factory Racing team participated in the Dutch MX1 Champions round in Mill. Todd Waters delivered good speed throughout the event, as he holeshot both races and was second in both motos and also the overall. Pascal Rauchenecker – standing in for the injured Tyla Rattray – collided with another rider in the first moto and was forced to retire. He went on to finish strongly with fifth in the second race.
Antti Pyrhönen (team manager): “The weekend in Mill was great training for us. We were able to have a good testing day last week in Germany where we modified the bike a little and today we were able to test the speed. Both of our riders did well. Todd holeshot both of the motos and kept the lead almost through both of the races. Pascal was unlucky in the first moto, but the second moto was solid riding and good preparation for Brazil next weekend.”
