Contrasting program at the MX Masters race in Tensfeld for the pilots from the district: Max Nagl won easily, Valentin Kees had to have an X-ray.

Tensfeld – One (Max Nagl) continued his impressive winning streak in the MX class, the other (Valentin Kees) only experienced the races as a spectator after a serious fall: The ADAC MX Masters in Tensfeld (Schleswig-Holstein) would have been more different ) for the two drivers from the local district could not run.

Valentin Kees falls in qualifying

In the "Youngster Cup", Valentin Kees (17) finished the race weekend after just a few laps of qualifying.

The driver from Schwabniederhofen fell unhappily and injured his hand.

A fracture of the forearm could not be ruled out by the race doctor.

A race was out of the question.

As a later X-ray examination showed, "fortunately nothing was broken and only a short break was necessary," said the "KTM Kosak Racing" team, for which Kees competes.

The failure for the man from Schwabniederhofen was also annoying because he had set very good times in free practice.

Max Nagl wins with maximum points

Max Nagl had absolutely no reason to complain at the fourth ADAC MX Masters event of the season.

The 34-year-old from Weilheim once again won the day's classification - this time, as in Dreetz, with the maximum of 75 points.

In all three races, Nagl crossed the finish line first on his Husqvarna machine.

In the overall standings, he significantly extended his lead;

it is now 53 points behind runner-up, Frenchman Jordi Tixier.

Third is "KTM Kosak Racing" driver Tom Koch (210 points), who finished third in Tensfeld behind Nagl and Tixier.
