Jens Walvoort of BTS Racing delivered a strong performance at the Czech Grand Prix. On the technical track of Loket, Walvoort finished fourteenth and twelfth in the motos, earning him thirteenth overall in the day’s standings.
On Saturday, Walvoort already showed promising speed. The track was still dry during the time practice, allowing for high pace. Walvoort made several attempts to clock a fast lap and ended up with the thirteenth fastest time. After time practice, rain set in, transforming the circuit into a slippery, muddy track. Walvoort performed well in the qualifying heat. Starting outside the top ten, he made a solid comeback to ninth place, earning two championship points.
The conditions improved significantly for Sunday’s motos. In the first race, Walvoort got off to a good start, launching just outside the top ten. With a strong rhythm, he held his position for most of the race. Only in the second half did he have to give up a few places, ultimately finishing in a respectable fourteenth position.
In the second moto, Walvoort rode consistently. Once again starting just outside the top ten, he maintained his position throughout the race, finishing in a solid twelfth place.
With these results, Walvoort secured thirteenth overall for the day — an impressive achievement for the Dutchman on such a challenging circuit. Next weekend, Walvoort will line up for the Belgian Grand Prix in Lommel.
