RED BULL KTM lock-out loket as Prado and Guadagnini win in the Czech Republic

- Three Red Bull KTM #moto wins from four at Loket as Prado and Guadagnini take #mxgp & MX2 - Prado scales the podium for the first time this season and for first #mxgp success of 2021
- Guadagnini wins his second MX2 Grand Prix of the year
- Tom Vialle makes strong return with MX2 top three #moto result
- Herlings sits out the Grand Prix due to left shoulder blade fracture

Warm temperatures but brief summer showers greeted the Grand Prix of the Czech Republic and the slippery, stony hillside setting of Loket that has hosted world championship fixtures for over a quarter of a century. Red Bull KTM entered the latest episode of #mxgp with Jeffrey Herlings still out of play due to his shoulder injury but MX2 World Champion Tom Vialle returned to action after a late training fitness test on Friday confirmed his broken right hand had recovered sufficiently to race.

After achieving Pole Position in Timed Practice for the first time this season, #jorgeprado rode an exemplary first #moto. The Spaniard took the holeshot and remained error-free ahead of Tim Gajser for his maiden ’25’ points of 2021. In the second race Prado used his KTM 450 SX-F to edge ahead of teammate #tonycairoli into the first corner but the Italian then dropped the hammer in the opening laps as the Red Bull KTMs flew 1-2.

Prado played a cautious game on an increasingly rougher terrain where traction was hard to judge. He loitered in 3rd position and stamped his 35th overall career success. Cairoli, who was 6th in the first #moto, matched Prado’s performance. Red Bull KTM took both race wins and the first two spots on the #mxgp rostrum. Cairoli’s fourth trophy from five events means he is 2nd in the championship and just 11 points away from Gajser. Prado is now up to 3rd and only 6 points behind Cairoli.
