Lucas Coenen stood out at the MXGP of Germany for the MX2 World Championship. The rider won both races held this Sunday in Teutschenthal.
After making the holeshot, the Nestaan Husqvarna rider led all the laps of the first race, in which his teammate Kay de Wolf was the main pursuer from start to finish. Coenen won with a 3.664-second lead, while Simon Längenfelder (Red Bull GasGas) finished third, already 25.075s behind the leader.
Determined to win at home, Längenfelder made the holeshot and led the first lap of the second race, but was overtaken by de Wolf on the second lap. Coenen had to recover positions and reached the top on the seventh lap, never relinquishing the lead afterward. He pulled away and beat de Wolf by 9.505s, while Längenfelder had to settle for another third place.
Thus, the overall standings of the MXGP of Germany in MX2 are easy to tally: Coenen was the absolute winner with 50 points, followed by De Wolf with 44 points, and Längenfelder rounding off the podium with 40 points.
