Tommy Searle currently sits 15th in the MXGP Championship following the MXGP of Trentino last weekend where he ended the weekend in 11th.

Here is the team report following the weekend here:

The track in Arco di Trento was rough, and I the end of Sunday, it was more looking to Lommel than a typical Italian tracks we usually know.
To say the least, it was challenging. For the riders AND for the bikes.

14th in Time practice then 11th in the Qualification race Saturday, the BOS Factory rider was in the rhythm for sure.
Coming Sunday, everything was settle for good racing.

After a mid pack start in the first moto, Tommy came back pretty good till P13 when a little mistake caused him to go back in 17th.

“Honestly, the weekend was quite difficult from the start as It was not how I like to change like this through the race weekend. I made a mistake and crashed race one “

In race 2, the motivation was at its peak and the 450KXF pulled out great from the gate. Tommy kept the good line in the uphill start, and enter the first lap in 7th!
The track was gnarly, the downhill very bumpy, some corners slick and some ruts so deep but he will fight till the last lap to keep that place to finally end an excellent 8th for 11th overall.

“I end with a positive result but now I really hope we can improve and use the next 4 week to make a lot of progress with the Suspension and work together as a team to improve.” says Searle

“I’m very happy with Tommy’s performance and our rider got heart! Now I need to go back to work with him till the moment he feels his bike is perfect. It’s important to me, to him and to the team. The coming break in the calendar will allow that. The Top 5 is not that far.”
