Kevin Ris­ten­bi­eter takes home the last race
(Octo­ber 18th, 2009, Franke­nau, Ger­many)- The last race in the Ger­man Quad Cup took place in Warch­ing, Ger­many. With high winds and rain the entire day, the out­come of this race seemed muddy already. Yamaha Team Quad Briel, rid­ing with the new YFZ450R, did not have an excep­tion­ally good sea­son this year. National Cham­pion of 2007 and 2008, and rider for Yamaha Team Quad Briel, Max­i­m­il­ian Fre­und received 8 DNFs (did not fin­ish), severely dam­ag­ing the pos­si­bil­ity of another Cham­pi­onship title. How­ever, the team con­tin­ued to be opti­mistic and strove even harder to fin­ish in their usual top position.
In the first moto, Max­i­m­il­ian had a good start and was right up there with this season’s lead­ing rid­ers. With strate­gic manoeu­vres and con­sis­tency, Max main­tained a posi­tion in the top three, until a rear flat tire. This unfor­tu­nate turn of events led max to another DNF, where within this year’s 18 motos, 8 out­comes were DNFs. Kevin Ris­ten­bi­eter got a lit­tle luck­ier, and rode hard into 4th position.
In the sec­ond moto, Max­i­m­il­ian started off strong, and rode along­side with top com­peti­tors. How­ever, on the 3rd lap, a false manoeu­vre caused him to swerve off the YFZ450R. He man­aged to get him­self back on the bike, but with time as a cru­cial fac­tor, he only had the time to catch up into 3rd posi­tion. Kevin main­tained con­sis­tency, and rode strong the entire moto. With no prob­lems what­so­ever, Kevin fin­ished in aston­ish­ing 2nd place.
Over­all in the Warch­ing race, Kevin fin­ished 2nd place. How­ever, over­all in the Ger­man Quad Cup 2009, Kevin fin­ished in a strong 4th posi­tion, and Max­i­m­il­ian in 7th. With con­tin­u­ous per­fec­tions being made with the YFZ450R, Yamaha Team Quad Briel are con­fi­dent that next year will reap a podium position.
