Team HRC’s Tim Gajser has sealed the title for the 2019 Motocross Championship in Imola!

Tim Gajser of Team HRC has just secured his second MXGP title and the third world title of his Honda career. The rider claimed his crown three rounds early on the challenging tracks of Imola, Italy. Team HRC celebrated the moment with another MXGP success, after the 2016 victory. Brian Bogers, on the other hand, suffered from an unfortunate crash on lap one of the second moto. His shoulder is damaged and he will have to be assessed by the doctors.

Check out the highlights from MXGP TV.

“It is just an amazing feeling to have won this third world championship. To fight back after two really tough years and to even overcome a difficult round earlier in the year, it is just really, really great to have become champion. A big thanks to all of Team HRC, both here at the races and back in Japan who have supported me throughout this period, during the good and the bad. It is a real family I have under this awning. I am truly thankful to be riding with them for so long,” says Tim Gajser as quoted from Honda Racing Corporation.

“We have all worked extremely hard this year to improve myself and the Honda CRF450RW. It has worked amazingly well. We have had great starts and zero issues. I just feel really comfortable each time I get on the track, whatever the conditions.”

“I am struggling to say much more but it really has been an incredible experience. I’m so glad that a lot of fans from Slovenia could come out and witness this moment too. My previous wins have been in the USA, but now to have so much support here at Imola, and just throughout this year is something I am really appreciative of. Thank you to everyone who has been with me on this journey, fans team members, everyone, it means so much to me.”

“Unfortunately the day didn’t go very well as I got 14th in race one. I just couldn’t find a good rhythm and struggled on this tight and technical Imola track. Then in the second moto I had a crash right at the beginning and hit my shoulder pretty hard. I tried to ride for a couple of laps but had to pull off. Now I will get back to Belgium in order to get it checked out, to see if I can ride in Sweden or not next weekend.”

“I am so proud and happy for Tim to have won this MXGP championship. It certainly hasn’t been easy these past couple of years but he never gave up and this title is a reward for all the effort he has put in. From his first victory at Trentino, we knew it was going to be a special year and he just kept up that level of riding which allowed him to win this title with so many rounds left to race. He has now joined an extremely special group of riders in Honda history, winning his third championship with the brand and he fully deserves it. He is a very special talent.
Unfortunately Brian wasn’t able to finish the second moto and he will get checked out as quickly as possible in order to determine the next course of action.”
