Jeffrey Herlings will line up at Bielstein : Sixth round of ADAC MX Masters

Latest news regarding the ADAC MX Masters on 31/8//19 at Bielstein. 2018 MXGP World Champion Jeffrey Herlings (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing) will contest the sixth round of the ADAC MX Masters on Bielstein's wooded circuit in twelve days' time. Since mid-June, the Dutchman has been forced to rest an ankle he injured during the Grand Prix in Latvia, but the KTM works rider will race again at Bielstein and is hoping for another strong showing similar to the one he produced in the second race on his guest entry in the ADAC MX Masters at Möggers.

Back then, Herlings was also returning after injury and was only beaten by Jeremy Seewer. Herlings loves competing in the series, as he told us at Möggers: "The ADAC MX Masters is very professionally organised and I really enjoyed riding in front of the crowds of cheering fans. Also, it was great practice for the next WRC races." At the time, the motocross star had announced that he wanted to line up again in the ADAC MX Masters, and now, to the fans' delight, he is keeping that promise and will appear once again in the German International Championship.

However, motocross fans coming to Bielstein will be pleased to see that not only will the 2018 MXGP World Champion be putting in an appearance, Henry Jacobi (F & H Racing Team/Kawasaki), the reigning ADAC MX Masters Champion will also be in action. He is currently fourth in the MX2 World Championship. Jacobi lined up for the first time this year in the ADAC MX Masters at the beginning of August in Gaildorf where he took a P2 and a P6. He really likes Bielstein's circuit in the woods and intends to claim another podium finish on his second guest appearance this year.

The race on Bielstein's legendary track will be the penultimate round of the 2019 ADAC MX Masters. MSC Drabenderhöhe will host this year's sixth championship meeting. The club has had many years' experience in successfully organizing international motocross events. The track is the only one of its kind, having long passages through leafy woodland with dappled sunlight that presents riders with some very unique challenges. The 1,655-metre circuit is challenging and is especially popular with riders who prefer hard ground.
