With two riders in the top ten in a tough GP.
Tired but satisfied, the F&H Racing Team travels back to Moordrecht after the fifteenth Grand Prix of the season. Adam Sterry and guest driver Marshal Weltin performed very well during the Belgian Grand Prix in Lommel. Adam finishes ninth in the overall standings after finishing both heats in the top ten. Marshal finished eleventh but can look back on a very good substitute. Victory went to Jorge Prado-Garcia who further increased his lead in the FIM MX2 World Championship standings.
Welcome Marshal Weltin
This weekend the 22-year-old Marshal will compete for the F&H Racing Team to replace the injured riders. The American has experience with Kawasaki because he finished sixth in the European 250cc Championship last year with the KX250F. Marshal immediately showed himself in qualifying by qualifying thirteenth for the competition. His new teammate Adam managed to take a nice sixth place on Saturday afternoon!

When the starting gate drops for the first heat of the weekend in 30 minutes and two laps, both riders get off to a good start. Adam and Marshal immediately enter the top ten and come out of the first full round in ninth and tenth respectively. Adam is not a fan of these warm weather conditions, but he is feeling very good this weekend on the BO Oil-lubricated Kawasaki. The duel with the Italian Cervellin is decided in favor of the Welsh rider. Adam crosses the finish line in seventh place while Marshal crosses the finish line in a respectable fourteenth place.

Marshal starts the second heat in sixth place, while Adam did not get off to a good start. The 22-year-old Briton can quickly pick up a great pace and work his way into the top ten in the second laps. He then manages to take over eighth place from Marshal after almost fifteen minutes of competition. Well into the second half of the match, Pauls Jonass passes both Marshal and Adam. The F&H riders then managed to maintain themselves in the top ten with the new 2019 clothing from Leatt. The drivers were completely exhausted, but they received the congratulations from the team boss with great satisfaction.

The FIM MXGP-MX2 World Championship will continue in Switzerland in two weeks. The points are then distributed on the Frauenfeld circuit.
