HANGTOWN TOUGH ON THE TROY LEE DESIGNS/RED BULL/GASGAS FACTORY RACING TEAM.
MOSIMAN AND BRASWELL HAVE TOUGH DAYS AT ROUND TWO.
The Troy Lee Designs/Red Bull/GASGAS Factory Racing Team headed to California’s Gold Country hoping to turn around their recent racing fortunes.
250 MX
Michael Mosiman was on home turf at Hangtown and he was looking for a solid result aboard his MC 250F Factory Edition. Unfortunately, a 14th-place finish in moto one proved to be the high water mark for him and the team, as a tough crash in moto two ended his day. Updates on his status for future events will be provided after he gets checked out by his doctors.
The team’s other rider, Caden Braswell, tallied a 27-16 day for 19th overall. That matched his result from round one at Pala.
„Out here at Hangtown, we had a progressive day,” said Braswell. “We’ve got some things to look back on, and also some good things to take away. My confidence is growing on the bike and with the team. I’m surrounded by great people and I’m looking forward to the third round in Colorado with a big old fire in my belly.“
