Bel-Ray Sponsored rider Max anstie finishes second overall

at fim motocross world championship latvia

FARMINGDALE, N.J. (May 3, 2016) – Bel-Ray sponsored racer and Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing rider Max Anstie finished second overall in the MX2 class during the sixth round of the 2016 FIM Motocross World Championship in Kegums, Latvia on May 1.

Max Anstie showed impressive skill on the Kegums track, riding his Husqvarna FC 250 to the holeshot in the opening of the first MX2 moto. Anstie continued his powerful performance having another good start in moto two. At the end of lap one Anstie maneuvered his way from fourth to second and maintained his spot as runner-up until the finish.

“It’s been an awesome weekend for myself and my team. I’ve worked really hard to build my speed and race consistency so it’s rewarding to find myself on the MX2 podium. I’ve delivered some strong rides during the last few races but things didn’t seem to go our way up until now. It was nice to finally be able to put two solid motos together and that was my goal for this GP. I felt like I rode two strong races and made some good passes. We’ve come a long way in the season so now I can be positive for the GPs to come.”

Fellow Bel-Ray supported racers who also competed in Kegums, Latvia include Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing riders Max Nagl (MXGP) and Christophe Charlier (MXGP). Thomas Covington (MX2) did not compete in this round due to injury.
