José raced this Sunday, his last race preseason before the start of the official races. The balance can not be better, sixth in the overall elite riders as Cairoli, Van Hoorebeek, Nagl, Bobryshev, Gonçalves or Philippaerts.
In Ottobiano José again demonstrated his strong point are the starts, getting the two holeshots in the MX1 and Elite race.
In the first race, Jose came out in first place, but go to the ground in the following curves, relegating him to a backward position and having to overcome. The cold and the mud was the principal enemy, with a very difficult track, and inability to get a good rhythm.
Joseph finished in 12th place.
In category ELITE, Butron again got the holeshot, but was losing positions due to problems with the glasses, racing several times without them, so definitely take it off with four laps to go.
With this, Joseph gets sixth overall behind Cairoli, Searle, Nagl, Febvre and Van Hoorebeek, and serves as training for the next round of Qatar.
Begins before the National Elite Motocross, next weekend in Malpartida de Cáceres.
