I was exhausted in the end so I
could not catch Prado."

Geerts is a man on a mission as
he looks to cut down his points
deficit. He made the most of his
weekend with a perfect sweep
of the qualifying race and both
MX2 motos in front of his home-
country fans. With these three
race victories, and mistakes
from both rivals Kay De Wolf and
Andrea Adamo, Geerts solidifies
himself second in the champion
-
ship and is now just 13 down
from Adamo.
"I couldn't be happier with 60
points in front of my home fans,"
said Geerts. "It was a really nice
weekend; the track was tough,
but I enjoyed every seconds out
there. It is also looking good for
the Championship, and I have
to continue like this for the next
races."
Lucas Coenen's first time
to the sand as a professional
was a success as he claimed
second with two second-place
race finishes. The Belgian was
the highest placing Husqvarna
in the field as his teammate De
Wolf didn't finish either moto.
He crashed out of race one and
didn't return.
Simon Laengenfelder also ran
a consistent day with two thirds.
The GasGas rider finished third
overall.
Adamo's day didn't go to plan
as he finished seventh overall.
Crashes in both races minimized
his efforts with 4-13 finishes.
The red-plate holder watched his
points lead dwindle to just 13
over Geerts.
