New MotoGP rider for 2022, Remy Gardner, enters round eꦰight of the 2021 Moto2 season with an increased championship lead of 11 points following his back-to-back winಌs in Italy and Spain. 

The victories in Mugello and Catalunya were the Australian’s second and💧 third career Moto2 wins, whi🀅lst also his first of this season. 

Given🍒 the recent form shown by both Gardner and team-mate Raul Fernandez - have been a class above the rest with three consecutive one-twos, both Red Bull KTM Ajo riders will be favourites for si🥂milar results at this weekend’s German GP. 

Sachsenring is a fairly unique track when it✤ comes to the current crop of MotoGP races. The German layout is extremely tight and anti-clockwise, resulting in ten of the 14 corners behind left-handers. 

And while Gard🐈ner described it as ‘similar to that of a karting circuit’, it’s one he enjoys nonetheless as claiming a top five finish is the obj🍬ective.

"I spent the week off ღwakeboarding, doing some trial training, and other days I went out for a run. It was a few days of relaxing a little," said Gardner.

"Now it's time to wor🔥k and face the last back-to-back races before the summer break. It will be important to get through these two contests with plenty of 🦋points, as we were doing at the last few rounds. 

"The layout of Sachsenring is similar to that of a karting circuit: The first sector is very small, although I quite like the fin꧟al part𒁃. 

"There are a lot of 🉐left hand corners, so let's see how it goes there. The goal is once again to enter the Top ♋5, without making any mistakes, and achieve the best possible result."
