The stars of tomorrow got to take their skills and showcase them in the World Superbike paddock, whilst also meeting some of their heroes in the process

The FIM MiniGP Netherlands Series was in attendance of the Motul Dutch Round, alongside the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship at the TT Circuit Assen in the Netherlands. The Netherlands’ next potential stars got on track and shared a platform with the fastest production-based World Championship in the world, whilst also taking the advice and getting to know some of the paddock’s biggest names.

With two races Kratochwil Fynn had an event to remember with a convincing pole position before dominating the opening race, winning by over 14 seconds ahead of Dean Gouw and Timo Kubbinga, whilst Race 2 saw Fynn double up, this time ahead of Levi Flier by 2.5 seconds, with Julian van Kalkeren rounding out the rostrum. Fynn thus leaves the event with a maximum of 50 points, having been in the leading positions through the entirety of the event, from Free Practices to the races.

Riders got to meet with Xavi Vierge (Team HRC), Jeffrey Buis (Motozoo by Puccetti Racing), Glenn van Straalen (EAB Racing Team), Victor Steeman (MTM Kawasaki) Sven Doornenbal (Molenaar Racing Team) and his teammate Thom Molenaar during the event, with Vierge providing advice to enhance their career and watching some of the action.
