As one of the best starters in the world and as last year’s Swedish Grand Prix winner, Seewer lined up confident. In Race One, the Swiss sensation got off to a top-three start, and after a relatively uneventful race, he finished solid in third. He then improved his launch out of the gate in Race Two, and after powering his YZ450FM to an incredible holeshot, he put in a masterclass performance to secure his second race win of the season.
Winning a GP always feels good, and on a day like today, that was very tricky with the weather. The rain made the track very hard to pass on. Usually, our sport is very physical, but today was more about mental strength. Here, it’s just about being in front after the first corner. I had a solid race in the first moto for third, and then just got the holeshot in Race Two and rode some solid laps to get the win. After finishing fourth at the past couple of rounds when I had the speed to fight for the win, it feels good to get it done.”
