| Red Bull KTM factory riders fine tune skills at pre season internationals |
| Red Bull KTM factory riders Max Nagl, Marvin Musquin, Jeffery Herlings and Steffi Laier were all on their bikes and testing themselves against the opposition this past weekend as they make the final preparation for the launch of their title bids in 2010. |

Reigning MX2 world champion Marvin Musquin was on top of the podium at the second round of the French National Championships at Pernes les Fontaines after picking up 63 points for his 3-4-1 place efforts, enough to put him in third place overall in the championship behind Steven Frossard and Jeremy van Horebeek. Musquin did not compete in the opening round.
MX1 Vice world champion Max Nagl was riding orange in Germany’s Frankenbach and finished second in both open category races for 44 points and second place behind Ken Roczen. And also in Frankenbach, Red Bull KTM’s own Steffi Laier pitted herself against the men and rode in the Class 2 events to a highly creditable thirteenth and eighth place for overall tenth position, underlining her courage and determination on the track.
Also hitting the track, this time at the Open Dutch Championships in Mill, the youngest member of the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing team, Jeffery Herlings, who is just 15 years old, finished third overall with 42 points behind Gautier Paulin of France and Joel Roelants of the JM KTM Junior Racing Team.
Pre season races are the perfect opportunity for the Red Bull KTM riders to fine-tune their skills before the opening GP in Bulgaria in the first weekend of April. |
