I was able to keep my flow right through to the end of the races, which is something I\u2019ve been working on, and I think that comes down to having a stronger mindset both before and during the race. That allowed me to keep fighting with the front group and I made some good passes on experienced riders. Overall, it was a very encouraging weekend, and we\u2019ll keep building from here.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Karlis Reisulis<\/div>\n<div>8th MXGP of Andalucia, 25-points<\/div>\n<div>8th MX2 Championship Standings, 57-points<\/div>\n<div>\u201cI feel like it could have been better, as I know I have more in me. My main struggle at the moment is finding that consistent race rhythm. Once I get a bit of arm pump it becomes harder to stay relaxed and ride the way I want to. That\u2019s something I need to keep working on \u2013 staying calm and managing it better. The second moto was an improvement for me; even if the result wasn\u2019t much different, the feeling on the bike was better, which is a positive to take away.\u201d<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The MX2 World Championship resumes in one week\u2019s time at the hardpack venue of Frauenfeld, where the team will remain focused on maintaining its strong start to the 2026 campaign.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MX2 Team\u2019s Janis and Karlis Reisulis have placed fifth and eighth overall, respectively, at the MXGP of Andalucia.
