HRC’s Evgeny Bobryshev believes you have to think, plan and be smart to get results at the Lommel MXGP and he has changed his training structure accordingly.

Lommel is a one-of-a-kind, deep sand track. It is heavily rutted and this grows deeper throughout each race. With the deep holes that will emerge, it’s one of the sternest challenges of rider and machine, and Bobryshev is looking forward to it as he has displayed some of his strongest rides of the year in sand getting on the podium in both Argentina and Latvia. The Russian is no stranger to Lommel and understands the track well.

“Lommel is a tough track. It is a tough race but I like it as it is a condition race where you have to think about how you ride the track. You have to be smart and make a good plan there. There are so many lines in Lommel too which make it interesting as you never end up taking the same one. I have changed my structure over the last two weeks to get fitter and more confidence. I need to get back my pace again as it has been a frustrating few races,” he said.
