Continuing his strong return to form, Jed Beaton secured Rockstar Energy Husqvarna’s best result in the opening MX2 moto as the Australian finished in a well-deserved fifth, one position ahead of his teammate Thomas Kjer Olsen.
Race two again saw Beaton place fifth after spending five laps running in fourth. With 5/5 results the FC 250 rider placed fifth overall – his highest Grand Prix result of the year to date – and just two points behind the fourth-place finisher.
“It’s been another good GP for me. I felt like Germany was a really good step in the right direction, and that I was finally managing to put things behind me and deliver the pace I know I can,” said Beaton. “I kind of kept that momentum going here with two more strong results. It was a tough GP, we all knew the heat wasn’t going to be too much fun, but both races went well for me. I’m pleased things are moving in a good direction now, hopefully next weekend will be another positive weekend, too.”
