Quentin Prugnieres of F&H Racing finished eighth in the final round of the MX2 World Championship in Cozar, Spain. Prugnieres rode two strong motos in which he managed to finish tenth and seventh.
The Cozar circuit was new on the world championship calendar. It was a track with a hard surface with a lot of loose stones on top. On Saturday, Prugnieres had a strong performance. He had a good feeling on the track and managed to set an eighth fastest time in time practice. He followed up with a strong performance in the qualifying heat. He got a very good start and was able to start the race in the leading group. In the early stages, he was in second place but then fell back to fourth place. He managed to hold his own and qualified fourth for the race.
Prugnieres also left a strong impression in the first moto. He came out of the first lap in sixth place and managed to take over fifth place after a few laps. Prugnieres had the connection with the riders in front of him and kept the pace high. Unfortunately, he made a mistake in the heat of the battle and lost many places as a result. Slightly disappointed, he crossed the finish line in tenth place.
In the second moto his start was not so good and he had to get back to the front from around tenth place. He managed to pass several riders and after a strong second part of the race he crossed the finish line in seventh place.
Prugnieres finished eighth overall and thirteenth in the final standings of the world championship.
