Thomas
Kjer Olsen: “Today was a bit of a tough day but my 11th in race
two gives me a lot of confidence as my start wasn’t great, but I was able to
make a lot of passes. It’s shame that I cased a jump in race one and damaged my
rear wheel. I was able to manage it for most of the race and I was in the
points, but it got to the point where it was too dangerous to continue. Another
learning day for sure and this week I’ll focus on my starts, which will make my
life a little bit easier if I can be up front with the top guys from the
start.”
