I am impressed by Renaux. Not really his field. Cool to see a new promising generation coming up (Vialle, Renaux, Boiramé, Moreau, probably Guyon, etc).

What a great last race that was. Milko Potisek is one to watch this year.

I have become obsessed with making a trip across the pond and trying some of these races in the next year or two.

Its good that he can win. I worked the pits for him in his first Le Touquet and they had him down as a non finisher even though we had video of the finish (and so did the organser) when he was 11th.

Round 3 taking place at the Bud Racing Training camp is cancelled due to bad weather. French Federation took the decision saying conditions were not good enough for the race but the track is opened for training this afternoon. Even a 65cc rider was spotted on the track riding pretty well. Track conditions definitly good enough but well...🤷‍♂️

I saw some footage from yesterday, it was really wet, i think they called it early based on the forecast, it looked awful yesterday and with it being a relatively short course i think it would have been mayhem .

Impressed with Kellet, he is on it at the minute.. Watson went down on the first couple of turns after contact with his team mate , but Kellet had enough to bring it home.. good coverage on Facebook.

Not a classic race, but still great to watch.. Watson got pinged for a jump start ( no argument although someone else was as bad and didnt) . Track was less technical with fewer jumps and switchbacks .. Potisek was on it.. Kellet led on lap 2 but crashes dropped him back .Available to watch on Red Bull TV with Paul Malin commentating.
