"So that's GetzenRodeo done,
and what a crazy day it's been,"
Lettenbichler said. "In the quali
race this morning, I had a good
pace, and I was pushing a lot, so
I managed to just keep building
on my lead to win that with over
four minutes to spare, which
was cool. The main race was go-
time for me. I really wanted to
win it in front of my home crowd,
and I honestly wasn't even think
-
ing about the championship
at all. It's so special to win the
championship here at Getzen.
The crowd was insane, and I'm
honestly speechless at how
motivating they were. I felt like
I was at my best today, and it
paid off. I'm proud of the whole
Red Bull KTM team; they have
worked so hard all year, so to
clinch the title with one round to
spare is incredible. I can't believe
we have done this for four years
in a row now!"
Roman was second in the
race, followed by Bolt, Great
Britain's Mitch Brightmore (Gas
-
Gas) and South Africa's Matthew
Green (KTM).
With one round left in the FIM

by Bolt with 123 points and
Brightmore with 121. Roman is
