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.
