Max Nagl going for top eight in Sunday's MX1 GP of Ireland

31.08.2008: Max Nagl going for top eight in Sunday's MX1 GP of Ireland

Max Nagl, Red Bull KTM's German factory rider in MX1 tackled an unfamiliar new track at the Fairyhouse Race Course in Dublin finishing eighth fastest in Saturday's Time Practice.

Jonathan Barragan onboard the KTM for Team Silver Action was fourth fastest, setting himself up for a possible podium on Sunday a place he has occupied impressively in the last four GPs.

Nagl said the track, particularly the parts where wood chips had been laid down to counteract possible rain, took some getting used to. The surface, a mixture of sand, grass and the wood chip covered area challenged the riders and made it trick to overtake. Nagl said he was nevertheless hopeful of scoring the holeshot on a track where the gap between the starting gates and the first corner is rather short.

"Qualifying was not bad for me today and I feel ok going into tomorrow's race. I can still make the holeshot and I hope for a good start and to be able to stay in front. My goal would be to finish in the top eight in both motos," Nagl said.

Weather, although cloudy was fine with mild temperatures, conditions that are expected to continue through Sunday .
