After a training run yesterday Jeffrey Herlings was given the green light by the doctor to race in Sweden this weekend. Under tough conditions with the heat the Dutchman rode some laps to prove his fitness.

“I got the green light from the doctor. It was incredibly hot, but I still have to ride a few laps. It showed that I can travel to Sweden. Of course, I do have trouble. It’s still not as it should be, but it must succeed.”

“We will do our best. We’ll see how it goes. Normally I’m going to win, but now we have to adjust the expectations a bit. Hopefully I still get some points together. In the second half of the season we ride on sandy tracks that are good for me. It is not mind if I have a few points this weekend would lose. The key is to remain intact.”
