MGM Yamaha Deutschland had a mixed bag of results at the first IDM Superbike round at Lausitz in eastern Germany. Jorg Teuchert, who’s bike I am responsible for whilst at the circuit, qualified 3rd and secured two 2nd places in the races. Meaning he is 2nd in the title race behind Bauer, who won both races on his honda. In the first race Bauer pulled out a commanding lead and Jorg had to settle for second. The second race was a much closer battle, and showed that Jorg will be right with him when we go to Oschersleben on 16th-18th of may.
Nina Prinz had a good weekend ending with a 19th and a 15th, giving her one point. This puts her ahead of around 30 of the IDM grid, and is a good performance to build on. With some more upgrades to her bike she should be able to get a good handfull of points in Oschersleben.
Andrzej Pavalec didn’t get his championship off to a very good start in Lausitz, after crashing out early in both races. Hopefully his strong qualifying performance is a sign of the results he can expect in Oschersleben.
Also at Lausitz was Phase One rider Damian Cudlin who was busy making waves in the IDM supersport paddock, with 2nd and 3rd place finishes. This puts him in 2nd place in the title race, which he seemed more than happy with. Both supersport races were won by the Triumph of Tode, which seemed to be untouchable all weekend.
