Former EMX250 champion Mel Pocock rode to a stunning seventh place in the first EMX250 moto of the season at Valkenswaard. Husqvarna ace Pocock was making his return to international competition after two years away due to a horrific hand injury.

Todd Kellet took 11th place while formerBritish champ Brad Anderson, riding a two-stroke 250 KTM which is now eligible for the EMX class, was 14th.

Mike Kras, also on a KTM 250 smoker for the GL12 team, battled right at the front but dropped back to 20th. Check out highlights of the EMX250 and 125 races!
