FOX-youngster Carl Ostermann dominated the SX85 class in the opening round of the Arenacross series in Manchester, and is the uncontested winner of both races. The very soft track was a great challenge, particularly for those riders specialized in Supercross, yet the thirteen-year-old from Bonn mastered the track skillfully and with confidence.

Carl after the award ceremony:

“I haven’t ridden a track that soft in a long time; a few of the jumps were just not possible on small bikes. But I adjusted to it very quickly and after two holeshots was able to ride at my own speed without having to take any big risks.”

Coach Seb Tortelli:

“Super happy after Carl’s race this weekend; Carl kept his momentum of the end of the year. This soft track was very challenging but he handled the ruts very well. Looking forward to next week with the final of ADAC SX Masters.”
