COLDENHOFF: “I’M NOT A COCKY GUY”<br />

Another member of the strongest (current)<br />

motocross nation and something of a recent<br />

MXoN specialist, Glenn Coldenhoff is sitting<br />

in front of us in KTM racewear. The hurried<br />

nature of the factory GasGas deal means that<br />

Matterley Basin will be the big unveiling for<br />

the latest marque to grace the premier class.<br />

The 29-year-old is using his Standing Construct<br />

450 SX-F in the meantime for the final<br />

stages of winter prep and an off-season period<br />

in total contrast to 2019 where he broke<br />

several vertebrae and raced his way back into<br />

fitness and form.<br />

Coldenhoff frustratingly chucked the positive<br />

momentum from his RedBud Motocross of<br />

Nations crowning moment into the sand with<br />

his violent and shocking crash at the end of<br />

2018 but is hoping that the five podiums and<br />

three wins (including Assen) from the close<br />

of ’19 will run into the new campaign. #259<br />

scaled the top fifteen of MXGP in rapid style<br />

to snag the bronze medal at the final round.<br />

Anything like the same level of form will mean<br />

the Dutchman is an outside title contender,<br />

regardless of the colour of the plastics.
