Suzuki
Europe MX2 tasted the bitter fortunes of motorsport this weekend at
Sevlievo for the Grand Prix of Bulgaria after Valentin Teillet was
unable to finish either moto in the opening round of the FIM MX2 World
Championship.

The Frenchman needed medical attention after a
heavy crash into a low jump during the second race and the extent of
the damage to his right shoulder has yet to be determined.

The
hard and fast Sevlievo course saw Teillet - making his debut on the
RM-Z250 - taking positions in the top-10 through practice and
qualification and was happy with his pace. The first moto ended
prematurely with a technical problem; and the team was dismayed when
the former European Champion became entangled with a first turn pile-up
as the start of the second moto. It was on a comeback-push through the
field that Teillet had his accident.
