SIXTYTWO Motorsport prepare for 2021 in Sardinia

Much like the rest of the teams, SIXTYTWO Motorsport crew have been busy with their winter preparations for the EMX125 and EMX250 Championships, in the Italian island of Sardinia.

Sardinia is a popular destination among the paddock for winter preparation, offering plenty of good motocross circuits with different type of terrain, along with beautiful weather conditions, perfect for cycling and running.

Jaka Peklaj (EMX125) is adapting well to the bigger bike, Husqvarna TC125. He did some suspension testing to adjust the bike to his riding style as well as engine test - tuned by RR racing. With the team he is putting hours in the sand to improve his sand skills and get some important experience before the start of the season.

"It is the first time for me to have a preparation like this. I like the new bike as I can play more on the tracks, but still I want to improve myself on sandy compound tracks. We are in no rush as my season starts in August, so I will work hard to be prepared for my first EMX125 race"

Filip Olsson (EMX250) continues where he left off last year before his injury. All the team is very pleased with his performance on and off the bike.

"I think we found a good balance between hard and smart training. I have a lot of fun every time I go riding. I didn't really expect to be in such a good shape as I'm now after a long break due to my injury. So, I'm looking forward to being behind the gate soon”.

Klemen Gercar (Team Manager) "I can say that all looks very positive after a month of winter preparations as all the team is very motivated and we work hard, but at the same time we have a lot of fun. We came to Sardinia this year with a race truck and van, which has allowed us to have a good base on the racetrack Riola Sardo”.
