Red Bull #gasgas Factory Racing's #jorgeprado has just finished an incredible weekend at round nine of the #2023fimmotocrossworldchampionship. The Grand Prix of #Germany, run at the historic circuit of #Teutschenthal, hosted the fixture.
Winning the qualification race is nothing new for Prado – he has taken pole position at six rounds this year – and he did that again on Saturday. '61' carried that brilliant form into Sunday's motos. Although he did not claim the holeshot in the first #moto, he stalked his competitors in a calculated manner and took control of the race on lap fifteen of eighteen. The second #moto followed a similar pattern, as he remained patient in second place and stole the lead in the closing stages. It was a commanding sweep for the star, and such a positive weekend helped him extend his advantage in the series standings to sixty-seven points.
Jorge Prado: "It was a pretty good weekend! Winning the qualification race and then both motos was just perfect. The bike was very good and so was my riding. I knew that I could do this more often, but it is just about putting everything together and building my confidence. I think today was a perfect example of what I can do. I feel very confident going to Indonesia. Everything is going very well and I need to keep going like this." A long journey awaits the Red Bull #gasgas Factory #racing squad now, because the Indonesian double header is next on the #2023fimmotocrossworldchampionship schedule. The Grand Prix of Sumbawa, which first appeared on the schedule one year ago, is the next fixture. Download high-res images of our racers in action at the Grand Prix of #Germany here.
