Evgeny Bobryshev wins in Teutschenthal

Evgeny Bobryshev went 1-1 across both motos to take the overall victory at the Grand Prix of Germany in Teutschenthal.


Leading the first moto from start to finish, after getting the
holeshot, Bobryshev took his first career GP win in dominant style. No
one could keep with the pace of the powerful Russian, not even
championship leader Cairoli, as he laid down the power of his CRF450R
through the prototype Dunlop tyres.

In the second moto he did
not have it all his own way, having to come through on the first lap
before taking the lead. But this time Cairoli was not going to let him
go, keeping on the rear wheel throughout much of the early stages.
Cairoli was pushing so hard that he was beginning to make mistakes and
he would fall whilst attempting a pass.

Bobryshev began once
again to look comfortable at the front but Cairoli only lost a couple of
seconds as he remounted and soon began to pressure once more. coming i
nto
last lap, Cairoli was riding ultra-aggressive and gestured for a pass on
one of the final corners. Bobryshev slammed the door shut and crossed
the line in 1st to a huge cheer from the enthusiastic German crowd, to
take his first overall Grand Prix win.



Team-mate Gonçalves also impressed on the day, going 7-4 for 4th overall, a solid performance from the re-invigorated Honda man.

“I
am lost for words, I don’t know what to say or how to feel right now.
It felt so good out there, I went into this zone where everything just
came together and the laps where just counting down. I would like to
thank the whole team and everyone at Honda for their efforts and
support, it has been amazing. This is the best moment in my career for
sure!”

Rui Gonçalves, Honda World Motocross
“I
am really happy with my performance today and felt like I began to
re-discover my feeling with my riding. I have to say that I am also so
happy for my team-mate Bobryshev, he rode awesome today and he deserved
the win
overall.”
