Racing at the 77th edition of the prestigious event for his home nation of Latvia, the talented youngster\u2019s race finishes of 12th and eighth earned him an impressive runner-up result. In addition to his B-Final victory, he was presented with the event\u2019s Best Performance award.<\/p>\n<p>The annual, season-ending Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations took place in Matterley Basin, Great Britain for 2024. The popular circuit, set in a shallow valley with plenty of sizable jumps, is always a spectacular race track for riders and spectators alike and for the 2024 edition, it was prepared to perfection.<br \/>\nWith Team Latvia not qualifying for the main races after Saturday\u2019s qualification races, Reisulis, and his teammates, Mairis Pumpurs and Edvards Bidzans, lined up for the B-Final on Sunday morning. Following a race-long battle with Yamaha-mounted Isak Gifting, Reisulis won the race and with his teammates also delivering strong results, Team Latvia were the 20th and final team to qualify for the main races.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8986\" src=\"http:\/\/huttenmetaalracing.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/unnamed-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/huttenmetaalracing.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/unnamed-5.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/huttenmetaalracing.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/unnamed-5-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/huttenmetaalracing.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/unnamed-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/huttenmetaalracing.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/unnamed-5-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Reisulis then took to the line for Race One, which saw MX2 compete with the MXGP riders. After a mid-pack start, the Latvian charged hard for an eventual 12th in the race and second MX2 rider behind newly crowned MX2 World Champion, Kay de Wolf. In Race Two, where he competed with Open class riders, Reisulis improved to finish eighth and third MX2 rider. The Yamaha YZ250FM racer\u2019s fantastic performance placed him second overall behind de Wolf on the day and with his victory in the B-Final, he was certainly deserving of the event\u2019s Best Performance award.<\/p>\n<p>Next year, the 78th edition of the Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations takes place at Ironman Raceway in Indiana, USA on October 3-5.<\/p>\n<p>Photocredits &#8211; Fullspectrum Media<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MX2\u2019s Karlis Reisulis has excelled at the 2024 Monster Energy FIM Motocross of Nations in Great Britain to secure second overall in the MX2 class.
