YAMAHA VAN BEERS RACING'S
AIGAR LEOK ACHIEVES MX1 CAREER
BEST IN GERMANY


FIM MOTOCROSS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
ROUND 8, G
RAND PRIX OF GERMANY

TEUTSCHENTHAL, GERMANY - JUNE 29, 2008

The 8th round and passing of the halfway point in the FIM MX Grand Prix season saw 34000 spectators turn out to the
Talkessel circuit in Germany.  Yamaha Van Beers rider Aigar Leok impressed the onlookers with two solid rides in the MX 1
class, posting a 9-8 score for 7th overall, a career MX1 best.  The Estonian battled it out with top factory riders and even
though track conditions were rough and demanding, ‘Aix’ used his smooth riding style to take advantage of the heat and
conditions.

Fellow MX1 team-mate Lauris Freibergs qualified as first reserve and could only take part in the second moto where the
friendly Latvian managed to score points with a 17th place finish.

Russian hopeful, Evgeny Bobryshev,  powered his YZ250F to two consistent rides in the MX2 class.  Evgeny showed good
race pace at the start of the moto’s but slowly lost advantage towards the end of the 35 minute + 2 laps race with the heat
and rough circuit taking it’s toll.  His consistent result of 16-15 gave him 15th overall for the GP.

The Yamaha Van Beers team heads for Sweden this week for round 9 of the series to be held at the picturesque circuit of
Uddevalla.
