The four-time world champion in motocross with sidecars admits that Kaspars Stupelis admits that this was definitely a very interesting summer for him, during which he managed to do many things that he has considered as a forbidden fruit for the last 20 years.
Previously, while participating in world championships, where he is the highest level in the world, he has not given discounts to himself or his body, and has had to endure psychological pressure. This year, he doesn’t feel overwhelmed, but he’s not lazy either.
This season Stupelis starts in the solo class in the amateur championship. Such a plan has been around for a long time, but the Covid-19 pandemic this summer has given the athlete the opportunity to implement his plan. Kaspars makes no secret of the fact that he started his career with a solo motorcycle, which also helped him as a carrier in his later career – he feels like a motorcycle.
This year Stupelis has managed to start one day both with a solo bike and with a sidecar as a cantor, moreover, he did it on one day of the competition. It was much harder to start solo, and it was felt that other competitors had tried to “bite” the four-time world champion. In addition, the pulse was faster with a solo bike, because he is still used to the sidecar and can do his job without nervousness.
Covid-19 disrupted the athlete’s plans for this season, but he is determined to start in the Latvian championship, and it is expected that the titled Dutch athlete could also come to Latvia. Daniel Willemsen, with whom Kaspars had decided to start this season in one crew. The Latvian championship will start on August 12 in Aloja.
There were still plans to start with Willemsen, but the changing situation with Covid-19 and the resulting restrictions changed the plans in many places, so Kaspars prefers the amateur championship in the solo class.
