In summer temperatures and in front of the impressive backdrop of the legendary Gaildorf track, fans enjoyed top-class racing on both days.
In the team standings, the entire KTM Kosak Racing Team confirmed its dominance: both the “Young Talents” classification and the overall TEAM went to Kosak. With the best overall performance across all classes, the team sent a clear message.
In the premier MX Masters class, Roan van de Moosdijk once again showed his class. On Saturday, he opened the race weekend with a commanding victory in the first moto. In Sunday morning’s second race, he finished second, maintaining his lead in the day’s standings. In the third race, however, a technical problem slowed him down: three laps before the finish, his chain came off in a deep rut. Thanks to quick self-repair, Roan was able to continue and work his way up to eighth place. This incident cost him the overall win, but with third place for the day, he took over the championship lead.
In the ADAC MX Youngster Cup, Bradley Mesters faced a weekend of difficult starts. In all three races, he had to fight his way forward from further back in the pack and couldn’t quite find his usual rhythm. Nevertheless, with fifth, seventh, and seventh place finishes, he collected valuable championship points that allowed him to keep his overall lead.
Also in the Youngster Cup, Valentin Kees impressed on the challenging former GP circuit with a strong performance. Two third places in the first two motos and fourth place in the final race left him tied on points with Mads Fredsoe for fourth place overall. Due to better individual race results, Fredsoe took third. In the championship standings, Kees currently sits in eighth place.

“Gaildorf was a almost perfect weekend for us. The atmosphere, the fans, and the track – simply fantastic.
Winning both the MX Masters TEAM classification and the Young Talents ranking is the result of hard work from our riders, mechanics, and the entire crew. Everyone played their part, and I’m very proud of that.
What makes it even more special is that we’re heading home with two Red Plates – in the MX Masters class and the Youngster Cup. The title is our goal, and we’ll keep pushing hard until the very last race.” – Kevin Gödderz, Team Manager KTM Kosak RacingThanks to the entire MSC Gaildorf for an all-around fantastic event. The next round of the ADAC MX Masters will take place on August 30/31 in Bitche, France.
