Heavy rains caused little trouble for the organizers of the second MXGP race in Indonesia this year. The track was more reminiscent of a mud bath all weekend, with which many racers had a lot of trouble.

Gajser drove in fourth place in difficult conditions, then got stuck in deep mud and lost three more places before reaching the finish line in seventh place. Unfortunately for Tim, the second run was eventually canceled due to impossible conditions, so the results of the first race were also considered the final classification of the race. The winner was Shaun Simpson, second was Glenn Coldenhoff and third was Clement Desalle. “To be honest, it was chaos, and with all the rain and mud, I’m in favor

A motocross sensation, Tim Geiser had his first chance on Sunday to become a champion in his first season in the top class of the World Motocross Championship. He only needed a point more than Antonio Cairolli, but our ace on the sand of the Dutch Assna did not work out. The rain soaked the sandy track at night, making it slippery. Gajser's hopes for a new excellent result floated on the water when a group of racers drove into a soggy second turn in the first race. Tim took it the worst as he fell and slipped to last place. In his fighting style, he broke through to the end of the race, but did not go higher than twelfth place. The organizers leveled the track before the second race and the sand dried a bit but the conditions were still very difficult. Gajser broke through the session in ospr
