JM Racing Honda successful with Brent van Doninck and Camden McLellan in Hawkstone Park and Lommel

JM Racing Honda has had a successful weekend. Brent van Doninck finished on the podium in the Hawkstone Park International and Camden McLellan won the Belgian Season Opener at Lommel.

After a poor start in the first moto, Van Doninck came back through the field. He was riding fast lap times and worked his way back up from twelfth position to third place.

In the second moto he had to play catch up as well. Again he had to come back from outside of the top ten and this time he managed to finish the race in fourth position. With a 3-4 score in the motos he took third place overall.

Things were different in the superfinal because this time he took a better start. He worked his way up from third to second and started to put the pressure on the race leader. Van Doninck finished the race in a strong second position and was satisfied with this result.

Yentel Martens on the podium in Le Touquet

Yentel Martens of JM Honda Racing has finished on the podium in the beach race of Le Touquet. Martens was riding a strong race and after three demanding hours he managed to cross the finish line in third position.

After a preparation of months, Yentel started the weekend with a good feeling. Because of set backs in the previous Le Touquet races he was determined to set this right!

Yentel found his rhythm straight away. After a poor start he worked his way up inside of the top five in the beginning of the race. He tried to avoid the collisions with the back markers and was riding in control. He had a good battle with fellow Honda riders Lars van Berkel and Cyril Genot. Despite a mistake in the closing stages of the race, Yentel was able to take over third position and finished on the podium.

Yentel Martens: ‘’It was a hard race not having a good start. Fighting till the finish. It feels good to be on that podium! A big thank you to my team and all the people supporting me.’’
