Following the announcement yesterday regarding the absence of Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP’s Maxime Renaux, the Frenchman has experienced a remarkable turnaround in his condition. Following consultations with his medical team and a successful afternoon spent at a local practice track in Belgium, where he tested his strength and fitness on the bike, Renaux’s improvement has exceeded expectations.

Renaux will arrive in Agueda this afternoon where he will undergo a fitness test with the FIM. A final decision regarding participation will be made following these assessments.
