Racereport Holzgerlingen #7 |Championship points for the team

Last weekend the Bloody Harry Energy – RGS MX Team was racing the 7^th round of the ADAC MX Masters championship in Holzgerlingen. The unique layout of the 1.8 km long track, consisting of technically challenging natural sections and a series of 15 jumps, pushed the riders to their limits, especially in the scorching sun this year.

However, it wasn’t just the skill and endurance of the riders that were tested. The bikes also faced significant mechanical challenges. Technical sections that evolved throughout the weekend and the long jumps, as well as the deep drops, demanded precision from both man and machine.

In the ADAC MX Masters class there were unfortunate technical issues. After Samuel Flink could only secure the 25th position in his group due to a failed qualifying attempt, he had to once again prove his abilities in the Last Chance Qualifying Race. While Samuel has often demonstrated himself as an outstanding starter, anything was still possible. However, after the 5th lap, he was forced to stop the bike due to technical problems.

The ADAC MX Youngster class had only partial representation this time. While Fabian Trossen braved the heat in Holzgerlingen, Junior Bal had to recover from his shoulder injury sustained in a crash in Tensfeld.

Fabian also struggled to qualify and had to prove himself in the Last Chance Qualifying Race. However, a different picture emerged here. Both the rider and the bike performed well on the demanding track, and the heat didn’t bother Fabian much as he fought his way to 3rd place. In the races he unfortunately couldn’t maintain this high standard and had to settle for 36th, 35th, and 34th places after challenging starts.

In the ADAC MX Junior cup, there was also a missing rider, leaving Sebastian Lorenzen as the sole representative of the team for the weekend. He managed to qualify for the races right away. However, only two races were held in the 125cc class due to the 85cc class that was also present this weekend.

In the first race, he had a poor start but managed to work his way from 37th to 23rd place, showcasing significant potential and bringing hope for the final ADAC MX Junior cup race on Sunday. In the second race the start wasn’t perfect again, but he improved to the 27th position after the start, a significant improvement from saturday. During the race, he worked his way up to 16th place, earning crucial points for himself and the team. He emphasized that these were the first points he could score in the ADAC MX Masters on hard pack terrain and that he’s aware of the starting issue and will continue to work on it. The bike performed well, but the high altitude and warm weather took a toll on his energy.

He was particularly grateful for the lightweight helmet and airy Fly brand clothing, as well as the Snickers clothing worn off the track between races.

All the riders and the team express their gratitude to the sponsors who make their participation in this racing series possible.

Next ADAC race is the final ADAC race of the 2023 season 30.9.2023 – 1.10.2023 in Dreetz.

Race Report MX Masters Tensfeld #6 | Close to top 10 result

For the Bloody Harry Energy – RGS MX Team, it was a weekend of mixed feelings in Tensfeld. Once again, it was a race without the 125cc category, so the team was represented by only three members. Junior Bal (#17) and Fabian Trossen (#622) ADAC MX YOUNGSTER Cup. Samuel Flink #750 racing the sixth round of the ADAC MX Masters series. The track conditons were perfect during the weekend. The mostly good weather and sandy terrain provided favorable racing conditions, and even the brief rain shower on Sunday afternoon didn’t change that. The races were watched by roughly 11,000 delighted spectators.

For Junior Bal, things looked pretty good at the start of the weekend. He qualified directly in 8th place in his group in the ADAC MX Youngster Cup, earning the team 10 points. The first race on saturday he started in 15th position and finished the race in 11th place, giving him a good feeling for the upcoming races on Sunday. The following day, Junior completed the second race in 19th place. Motivated to perform better in the final race, he gave it his all. However, in the 9th lap, while riding in 18th position, his bike turned sideways mid-jump, and he couldn’t correct it, resulting in a severe crash where he broke his collarbone, forcing him to abandon the race.

“I had a super weekend with a good feeling on the bike and was happy to be back with the team. It’s just a pity that the weekend ended wrong. I want to thank the team for the trust and ADAC medical team for helping me to make everything as painless as possible.” – Junior Bal

Samuel Flink couldn’t directly qualify for the races with his 8th place in the qualifying of the ADAC MX Masters group. However, he gave it his all in the Last Chance Race. Not only did he immediately take the holeshot, but he also led the entire field throughout the race, maintaining his lead to the finishline. He was extremely satisfied with his performance in this race. In the first race on Saturday, he started in 31st place and finished in 27th position, but he couldn’t replicate the same feeling as in the LCQ. In the second race on Sunday afternoon, he had a good start but lost his rear brake after the first lap, finishing in 31st place. In the final third race, Samuel fought his way back to 25th place.

“Overall, I had a good weekend and got plenty of experience. Now I will get ready for the next ADAC MX Masters in Holzgerlingen. I would like to thank my team and all our sponsors for the help and constant support.” – Samuel Flink

The team was present all weekend long to support the Bloody Harry Energy – RGS MX Team riders. Mechanics, physiotherapist, tireservice, components and bikeparts, paddock accommodation teammanager and many more.
This weekend would not be possible without the support of our partners.

Fabian Trossen had a mixed weekend. He finally felt comfortable with his new bike but only secured the 20th place in his group during the ADAC MX Youngster Cup qualifying. This meant he had to prove himself in the Last Chance Qualifying, which he did, finishing in 8th place. Starting from the 38th position in the first race on Saturday, he finished in 37th place. He placed 36th in the second race on Sunday. The rain and issues with his goggles caused problems in the last race. His goggles first fogged up, obstructing his vision, and then his second pair broke. Pit stops cost him several positions. After deciding to ride without them altogether, he finished the race in 34th place.

All the weekend’s results can be found online at adac.de/mx-masters.

This weekend (9th/10th September), the ADAC MX Masters returns with its junior classes – the ADAC MX Youngster Cup, ADAC MX Junior Cup 125 and ADAC MX Junior Cup 85 – for the penultimate event of the season at the Schützenbühlring in Holzgerlingen.
