Bobryshev makes it three in a row in Latvia

Evgeny
Bobryshev has made it three consecutive podiums for the Honda World
Motocross team, with an excellent 3rd place finish at the GP of Kegums,
Latvia. Bobryshev went 3-3 across both motos to take home 3rd in the
overall classification and to step onto the podium once more in front of
a crowd of enthusiastic Russian fans who had made the trip over the
border.

Bobryshev was running at the front for much of the first
moto, just behind leader Cairoli but could never quite get into the
position to make the pass. Frossard was closing behind and as the moto
came into the latter stages, made the pass for 2nd. Bobryshev would
settle for 3rd and set his sights on a similar finish in the second.
Team-mate Gonçalves would also post a strong ride to 7th position.
 
The
second moto followed a very similar format, with Cairoli, Frossard and
Bobryshev once again gapping the chasing pack. Gonçalves would charge
through from 10th po sition on the first lap to lead this chasing pack
in 4th. Out front the positions would not change and it stayed Cairoli,
Frossard and Bobryshev (the same order for the overall classification)
with Gonçalves 4th in the moto and overall.

“I
am so happy to be on the podium once again but I cannot really think
right now because my brain is boiled! It was really hot out there and
the pace was really quick. I feel like I am comfortable on the podium
now and want to be here every week.”


Rui Gonçalves, Honda World Motocross
“This
was a really good result and I was very happy with the way I rode in
the second moto, coming through the pack. I just relaxed and let things
flow and this is when I ride at my best. I just need to sort things out a
bit in the first moto but overall it has been a good day.”
