Matterley Basin - Returning

Matterley Basin is known as a circuit that not only produces great racing, but also has amazing atmosphere. Built by Johnny Douglas Hamilton and promoted by Steve Dixon this facility is everything motocross should be and more. Despite it being a little more than a decade old Matterley Basin has seen some great battles and has quite a story-line of its own.

It was back in 2006 that Matterley Basin came alive as Stefan Everts and David Philippaerts won their respective classes at the first ever British Grand Prix held at the circuit.

In the MX2 class on that day two other Matterley favorites Antonio Cairoli and Tommy Searle finished second and third overall. Cairoli scored 40pts and won his first ever race at the circuit.

A few months later the best riders in the world returned to Matterley Basin as the Motocross of Nations was held. This time it was Team USA (James Stewart, Ryan Villopoto and Ivan Tedesco) who went home with the victory, but nobody will ever forget the battles between Stefan Everts and James Stewart in the MX1 class and Ryan Villopoto and Antonio Cairoli in the MX2 class.

Everts went 1-1 in front of one of the biggest motocross crowds ever seen for the MXoN, and RV scored 2-3 results for the MX2 overall, but it was Cairoli who scored his second moto victory at Matterley Basin for his second overall in the class.

After a handful of other circuits held the British Grand Prix from 2007 until 2010, Matterley Basin returned to the GP scene in 2011, and again Cairoli took a moto win as he scored victory in the MX1 class. Young German rider Ken Roczen won the MX2 class with 1-1 scores.

A year later in 2012 that man Cairoli goes 1-1 in the MX1 class, taking his fourth and fifth race wins at the circuit on his way to a dominant performance. In the MX2 class Tommy Searle and Jeffrey Herlings went to war as they battled for the small bike honors. Searle scored 1-1 results as Herlings crashed out of one race while on the back wheel of the Brit. The huge crowd went wild as the home boy handed the world champion defeat.

2013 and while Cairoli was able to pick up another moto win, it was Clement Desalle who won the MX1 overall with 2-1 results. In the MX2 class a classic GP was held as a handful of riders fought for the GP victory. With world MX2 champion Jeffrey Herlings out of the GP due to injury it was his countryman Glenn Coldenhoff who took the win.

In 2014 Cairoli went 1-2 for the MXGP overall victory and in doing so scored his seventh moto win from 12 starts. No doubt the last 10 years had seen Cairoli as the most decorated rider at the beautiful circuit build in a valley. In the MX2 class in 2014 the Dutchman Jeffrey Herlings finally scored his first GP victory at the circuit.

2015 and a surprise in the MX2 class as Valentin Guillod wins with 2-1 and beats Herlings for the overall. Herlings also went 1-2, but the wrong way around for victory.  Cairoli gets another win in England with 1-3 scores.

A year later, and the last time we visited Matterley Basin for a GP (2017 the Monster Energy FIM MXoN Presented by Fiat professional was held so no GP), and Herlings goes 1-1 for a win, and in MXGP it was Tim Gajser winning with 1-1 results and Cairoli could only muster 2-10 for sixth overall.

Now, we await possibly the best GP of the season, as Herlings looks to dominate Cairoli on a circuit both have massive success. Cairoli with GP wins in 2011, 2012, 2014 and 2015, and Herlings winning in 2014 and 2016.

Tim Gajser – Confidence Building

HRC Factory rider Tim Gajser is making good progress as he recovers from a pre-season injury, where he broke his jaw. Last weekend at the Grand Prix of Germany, he finished on the podium and with 2-2 performances had his best GP of the season.

Now in sixth place in the MXGP points standings, the two-time motocross world champion is starting to feel as though he might just be able to make ground on series leader Jeffrey Herlings when it comes to racing side by side.

A massive 165 points back from Herlings, his chance of picking up his third world title are gone, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t trying as hard as possible to get a GP victory and close the gap to the Dutchman.

“You know I am really happy,” Gajser said. “We will work harder and try and improve on the bike and myself, and hopefully we will do more results like that. Sure, I miss the confidence and I am building confidence and riding well, you can make scrubs and ride better. The weekend in Germany I was enjoying it more and having more fun and we are going into the right direction. Being on the podium is always a great feeling; we have twelve more rounds so now the goal is to continue building momentum and try to keep it as high as possible.

Bike improvements are also giving Gajser more confidence and in Germany he was enjoying riding a lot more than in the previous six rounds (he missed Argentina with his jaw injury). His condition is better and also his concentration.

“I enjoyed riding my Honda throughout the whole weekend and I managed to maintain a consistently-fast pace up to the chequered flag, which is a very good sign. I was much more relaxed, confident and comfortable on track than in Latvia: this is why we were fifth there, and second here.”

A race Gajser has looked forward to all year is the next round in England. Having scored a GP victory at Matterley Basin a couple of years ago, he is going there with the podium again in his sights.

“Now we go home, train hard and get ready for Matterley Basin, which is a track I really love. I really like Matterley Basin. It has big jumps; good speed and the layout is really good. In 2016, I won both races, and also the qualification, and that was one of my best races at that circuit. Races give you confidence, when you know you are there. In past races I started good but lost the concentration and made mistakes and lost places. In Germany I was really focused and do every lap well.”

So bring on England, and a chance to improve on what has been a relative slow start to the 2018 MXGP championship for the Slovenian.

Gautier Paulin - Improvement

For Rockstar Energy Husqvarna rider Gautier Paulin his 4-3 scores in Latvia were his best combined tally all year for a Sunday, but then last weekend he went 3-3 for third overall. 

Germany was a brilliant performance for Paulin, scoring FOX holeshots and big points and even battling with Herlings and Cairoli, something he struggled to do on many occasions this season.

“It’s been a great weekend,” Paulin said. “Getting two holeshots and two third place results at this rough track is a good confidence booster for the races to come. We’ve been working a lot with the team and to get two holeshots shows we’ve made some good progress. In both races my speed was good, and I managed to fend off all the attacks from behind. During qualifying on Saturday, a stone hit my back and there was some pain in both final races. The FC 450 was working great at this rough track and I really want to thank my team for the great job. We’ve been testing a lot and the results here in Germany show we are moving in the right direction.”

Paulin is always fighting though, and his third-place finish at the Kegums circuit gave him a lot of confidence going into round eight in Germany.

“It was good weekend for us in Latvia.” Paulin said. “I’ve been working a lot with my team to improve all the little details, so to get on the podium was a good reward for all the hard work. I’m happy because in both races I could ride the way I wanted to and improve myself as each race went on. In the opening race I made a late attack for third at the final lap, but it didn’t go as planned so I had to settle for fourth. My bike was working great and I was happy to get a good start in race two. I was riding really good and managed to defend my third position until the end of the race. Overall, my riding was good here in Latvia and the goal now is to keep this momentum and get even better in the races to come.”

Even in Russia three weeks ago: “The feeling was good in the final races and if my starts were better I could have easily battled for the top three. The track was slippery and quite fast, but my bike was working great despite challenging track conditions. I made a few mistakes in the qualifying race and had two crashes so my 10th position at the starting gate for the final races made things harder. My starts were not the best in any of the two races, but I did my best to be consistent. We’ll keep testing and working hard with the goal to get back on top.”

Now moving onto Matterley Basin in England he is hoping for a continued improvement on his 2018 season!

MXGP PRO PRESENTS ITS COMPOUND

MONACO (Principality of Monaco) 22 May 2018 – Youthstream and Milestone are pleased to announce the return of the Compound, one of MXGP fans’ best-loved features, designed as an even-larger training area, where players can further improve their riding skills, taking part in adrenaline-filled training sessions and getting involved in thrilling races on different tracks with varying weather conditions.

This year, the training compound is designed as a large one square kilometer area of forest inspired by a real-world location, the amazing Esino del Lario, surrounded by the Grigna Mountains and by Lake Como to the South, where players will have the chance to train and explore the area on their own. The Compound includes two tracks, one for Supercross and one for Motocross, where players can push their limits in time attack mode or against official riders and, for all off-road competition lovers, a more challenging trail has been created, where they can really go full gas and put their riding skills to the test.

The Compound is the designated area for training and improving riding performance to become a motocross champion. It will be possible to test skills in many motocross disciplines: air control, scrubs, cornering, wet, standing starting and braking, each one associated to 5 test sessions, so that players can improve their custom rider’s skills by training with official MXGP riders.

Moreover, as previously anticipated, this year Milestone's designers worked with exceptional partners: official MXGP riders Tim Gajser, Tony Cairoli, and Gautier Paulin, who together provided extensive and precious feedback during the development of each skill. The result is a real racing feel and impressive realism!

That said, Tim Gajser was our reference for reproducing bike movements in air control and scrubs; then we asked multi-champion Tony Cairoli how to recreate the bike's response times in the starting and when managing braking power. Lastly, Gautier Paulin shared his experience and know-how on how to win on different tracks: wet, sand, etc., and minimize cornering times while maintaining full control of the bike.

Tim Gajser explained to our designers how to properly master a scrub: “The scrub is a really special technique, I explained how the body moves and how the bike reacts accordingly; to perform a perfect scrub during a race, you need to keep leaning as much as possible, almost cutting through the air, maintaining a low trajectory. This is the only way you can land earlier and gain some time” then he added” I tried the scrub feature in the game and I was impressed with the high quality and realism of the reproduction, it was really fun!

Gautier Paulin added: “The designers did an incredible job, I was surprised to see how the ground was totally identical to the real thing, as well as the bike’s reactions on different tracks, wet or dry; like when the bike loses speed when going up a hill and it goes faster when you come down. I tried different tracks and I gave my feedback” as for cornering, he added “I asked the developers to work on the bike’s reaction when entering a corner with banking, the grip that you get with the bike is amazing. The result achieved in MXGP PRO really is unbelievable.”

Last but not least, Tony Cairoli concluded “This year the designers have done a great job, especially in terms of the riders and bike physics; for example speaking of the braking, it changes greatly based on the type of terrain; I think it was when I tested the wet tracks that I realized that the brakes felt too soft on some sections so the bike wouldn’t brake properly, so I told them about it. I saw the final result after my feedback and I must say that I was really impressed with the realism of the riding feel.”

This year the Compound really is a complete training area; ready not only to meet expectations of fans of the discipline, but also of the general public, bringing the thrills that only motocross bikes offer. A place where riders can continuously improve their skills by challenging themselves or their opponents, and above all, by having even more fun than ever!

MXGP PRO will be available from the 29th of June 2018 on PlayStation®4 and Xbox One for €69.99 and on Windows PC®/STEAM for €49.99.

Mattia Guadagnini Gets Career First Win in Germany

TEUTSCHENTHAL (Germany) 20 May 2018 - This weekend the MXGP calendar made a stop at Germany’s Teutschenthal motocross track and along with it came the European Motocross Championship’s EMX125 class presented by FMF Racing. Topping the group of riders at the end of the weekend was Team Maddii Racing Husqvarna’s Mattia Guadagnini with unbeatable 2-1 finishes.

 

88 riders entered the racing from around the world for their chance to qualify for the main races’ 40 rider starting list. Qualifying on Saturday morning narrowed the field down for Race 1.

From the start to the finish KTM Junior’s Rene Hofer led race 1 with red plated #11. Behind Hofer the first half of the race was Jezyk Racing team’s Eddie Wade. Wade, the 2017 FIM Junior Motocross 85cc World Champion, had the Husqvarna of Guadagnini behind him from the start but on lap 9 of the 15 total Wade lost the spot.

Yamaha Europe EMX125’s Thibault Benistant, a first time podium finisher from last weekend in Latvia, ran in 4th every single lap. Past the checkered flag Hofer won his 4th race of the season while Guadagnini took 2nd and Wade 3rd.

The surface for today’s Race 2 was noticeably different as the riders were the first on the track following overnight watering and track maintenance. The conditions played perfect into the hands of Meico Vettik from Estonia who took the lead early over Benistant, Guadagnini and Hofer. The Italian, Guadagnini, mounted a charge immediately and was into 2nd by lap two while for Hofer it took longer to move forward. On lap 5 Guadagnini was into the lead past Vettik but Hofer was still positioned 4th. With Guadagnini getting away, Hofer found a way to get by Benistant on lap 6 and then Vettik on lap 8.

In the remaining 6 laps Hofer chipped away at the gap of Guadagnini successfully. With only two corners to go Hofer was all over the back of the Italian who could feel the pressure. The last minute charge from Hofer was left too late to make a pass and Guadagnini took his first ever race win swapping results with Hofer for equal points. The race 2 performance gave the Italian his first ever overall victory while Hofer extended his points lead and Vettik took 3rd.

Courtney Duncan Dominates Deutschland

TEUTSCHENTHAL (Germany) 20 May 2018 - The FIM Women’s Motocross World Championship’s 3rd round of 2018 played out over 2 days on the German circuit of Teutschenthal. Altherm JCR Yamaha’s Courtney Duncan faced tough competition and a challenging track this Saturday and Sunday but provided a masterclass for her competitors taking double race wins.

The WMX round of Germany was held along side the MXGP of Germany’s MXGP and MX2 races on the classic motocross track with tens of thousands of fans witness the action.

Coming into the weekend Courtney Duncan led the Championship with 2 rounds complete and at the drop of gate for Race 1 on Saturday she would take the Holeshot. Duncan battled with her fellow Yamaha mounted competitors such as MXFONTARACING Yamaha’s Kiara Fontanesi.

Fontanesi, who is the defending WMX Champion, took the lead from Duncan before the end of the first complete lap. Duncan chased Fontanesi for 10 laps as Nancy van de Ven was running in third.

The German fan favorite was of course Larissa Papenmeier who maintained 4th position every lap from the start just ahead of fellow German Stephanie Laier. Back at the front the pair of title contenders battled on their way through lapped traffic but when the two lap board came out, Duncan made a pass to win the race almost 7 seconds ahead of Fontanesi.

Race 2 started with Duncan again out front but Fontanesi back slightly further unable to put in an early challenge. Splitting Duncan and Fontanesi on the first lap was Nancy van de Ven while Papenmeier was again 4th.

Fontanesi passed van de Ven for 2nd on lap 2 and 2 laps after that Papenmeier moved into 3rd. The #85 of van de Ven then lost 2 more spots to both Sara Andersen from Denmark and KTM Silver Action’s Amandine Verstappen.

Nancy van de Ven was able to get back two positions but remained unable to pass Papenmeier which would ultimately decide the final spot of the podium. Duncan took her second race win of the weekend this time by more than 15 seconds over Fontanesi. In the overall standings Duncan and Fontanesi clearly went 1-2 after identical race scores but Papenmeier took the final spot on the podium after a tie in points with van de Ven but a better race 2.

Courtney Duncan stated: “Overall the weekend went pretty good, I think when you go 1-1 you have to be happy and I am. I’m also really excited for Ottobiano!”
