With the European Motocross Championship kicking off at Valkenswaard, Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing team riders Conrad Mewse and Yentel Martens both made winning starts to their 2016 campaigns
Racing his FC 250 to two moto victories Conrad Mewse topped the podium in EMX250. His teammate Yentel Martens secured 2/1 results to earn the GP victory in EMX300.
For Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing’s MX2 rider Max Anstie the GP of Europe proved to be a challenging one. Looking to fight for a spot on the MX2 podium Anstie was left with a mountain to climb after a heavy crash in his qualifying race robbed him of a much-needed strong qualifying result. Pushing hard to overcome a bad start Anstie raced to an eventual 19th position in race one. Fighting from the back of the pack he went on to place 22nd in moto two.
