Meanwhile, in the MX2 class, it was Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing rider, Thomas Kjer Olsen with the podium victory, Henry Jacobi, now riding for Yamaha SM Action MC-Migliori, in second and the rookie, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing’s Tom Vialle, starting the season strong in third. But with a competitive field of riders and new ones coming through the ranks, it will be interesting to see who will be present on the podium at the first Grand Prix of the season.
