ONK Assen | Henk-Jan Laning 2007-07-15 (22:36) hjlaning@hotmail.com
Hello racefans,

Blue sky,much sun,going to a race circuit....is there more to wish?

The bike and Fredrik where looking forward warmup.....maybe
warmup is not the right word....3 laps and time is over.

Fredrik looks not so satisfeid...anyway...just 3 laps and the same time
as yesterday after 20 laps practice.

Yesterday there was spoken a lot about the 125c and 250cc racing together.
There were some dangerous situations...speed difference and 40 riders
means extra concentration.
The board made a good choice,125cc race 10 laps and 250cc race 10 laps.

The bike needed little changes and Fredrik got time to talk with riders
passing by. Hans Smees looked very interested at the Honda.....bike change
before racestart????

Watching a great 125cc the sky was not so blue anymore...and after 7 laps
Women´s championship race,the ladies got red flag due to rain.
Not heavy..but enough for stopping.
I was standing beside the pitbox italian ducati team (3 riders).

Italian can be very upset (telling something new?)...many mechanics,
a busy teammanager and nobody knows what tyre to put on...just use
your imagination for the pictures.

All this delay means waiting for the 250cc riders at the `parc ferme`.
The rain did not impressed Fredrik....

Starting the sighting lap...still a cloudy sky and little rain drops...

Standing on the second row Fredrik made a good start but after
two laps he was going backward instead of forward.

Fredrik got problems at the north trackside with the front..so
he decided to change his body position on the bike.

The feeling was better now and Fredrik was able to real racing.
His was fighting his way trough the field and the Honda was
also enjoying the party.
Nice `battle` with Lars Kristiansen means at the end 5 place!

Race result
1. Hans Smees (leading start/finish)
2. Ronald Beitler 14,3 seconds behind
3. Randy Gevers 16,5 sec.
4. Mike Velthuizen 16,7 sec.
5. FREDRIK WATZ 29,2 sec.
6. Lars Kristiansen 29,4 sec.
7. Erwin Postmus 39,3 sec.
8. Mark Bezemer 39,5 sec.
9. David Drieghe 39,9 sec.
10.Frank Bakker 44,9 sec.
Persson DNF

The best result ever racing team noord nederland!
When you got this results racing is really nice,fun!

At the VIP box the people where very impressed about
Fredrik...to be honest I was proud to....

Fredrik got a deserved cold beer,and after a little chat
it was time for saying goodbye.
Thanks Fredrik for the nice days and I hope for a safe
journey backhome!

onk assen | jan wichertjes 2007-07-15 (21:26) wiche084@planet.nl

Thanks and see you , Jan.
P.S. good luck this weekend in the E.K.

ONK Assen | Henk-Jan Laning 2007-07-14 (19:56) hjlaning@hotmail.com
Hello racefans,

Practice day Assen is over.....so time to share impressions.

The weather was nice..23 degrees..but windy...no complaining
after two weeks rain!.

When I arrived Fredrik was just preparing for the first practice.
New bike...25 minutes practice..what to expect?

When a 125cc bike is passing you...there is a lot of work to do
(saying it nice).

Fredrik was smiling after the first practice...it was fun to be back on
Assen..and no complaining about the bike,lets got the work started!.

result first practice
1. Hans Smees 1.46,4
2. Ronald Beitler 1.48.3
3. Erwin Postmus 1.50.3
4. Uffe Christenson 1.51.0
5. Jan Roelofs 1.51.3
6. FREDRIK 1.52.0
9. Daniel Persson 1.54.8

18 competetors 250cc,riding together with 20 125cc riders.

The suspension was not working at all and Fredrik talked a long
time with öhlins about changes.
Willy and his people where working on the bike....they try to follow
all the whishes Fredrik...to be honest...they where pleased to work
with a rider like Fredrik......as I told before...no complaining..lets make
things better!.

Hans Smees was visiting for a little chat and also other dutch riders took
a look at the pitbox. A visit to the Danish Team...and than its time for the
second practice.

Almost two seconds quicker.....but the time to get a "perfect" bike (the bike
is never perfect,always faster,faster,faster..means new/other problems) is to short.

This weekend is perfect for testing and take the Honda at a higher level....not more
said Fredrik....when more?...sitting on my own Yamaha!

Practice result

1. Hans Smees 1.46.4
2. Randy Gevers 1.47.4
3. Ronald Beitler 1.47.4
4. Jan Roelofs 1.49.4
5. Erwin Postmus 1.49.4
6. David Drieghe 1.49.6
7. Mike Velthuizen 1.49.9
8. FREDRIK WATZ 1.50.3
9. Lars Kristiansen 1.50.9
10.Uffe Christenson 1.51.0
16.Daniel Persson 1.54.8 (not riding second practice)

When I was leaving the circuit the Honda was stripped,
arriving tomorrow.....there will stand a yellow/blue (swedish?)
bike that is waiting for a new ride.

Warmup starts 11:00....and green light at 12:55 for 12 laps.

Greetings

ONK Eemshaven | Henk-Jan Laning 2007-05-20 (22:00) http://Oude pekela hjlaning@hotmail.com
Hello racefans,

A lot of racing today...GP France,EC Vallelunga,IDM and ONK Eemshaven.

Today perfect weather for a visit Eemshaven.
Sun,22 degrees...but don't get to "naked"...Eemshaven is the northest
part Holland and a harbour...always windy at the seacoast.

250cc
9 competetors...after the first lap there were 7 and 3 laps later 5.....
this is not amusing. Randy Gevers took profit of his fast Aprilia (eemshaven
"stop&go circuit"),Mike Velthuizen was pushing,but his Honda was not
fast enough. Third place Belgian driver David Drieghe.

Supersport 600cc
12 competetors. Arie Vos was leading the whole race. Second place Joan Veijer
don't like Eemshaven (to dangerous) and was satisfeid with second place (16sec.
behind Arie).
Third place nice fighting Patrick Lakerveld and Henk vd Lagemaat.

Superbike
Most riders this four days racing event (24).
Pole sitter Bob Withag crashed the first corner,due chosen first gear in stead
off second. Arie Vos again to strong and won the race with a 8 second gap
Paul Mooyman. Third place Robert de Vries (son former 500cc GP Henk de Vries).

It is difficult...the organisation did a perfect job at Eemshaven,but the circuit is almost
the same as 15 years ago..the bikes get faster and faster...

Next round ONK...coming weekend Oss (again street circuit)

EC Vallelunga
1. Alvaro Molina
2. Omar Menghi
3. Hans Smees
6. Jan Roelofs

Joshua Sommer crashed 3 laps before finish,he was third at the moment.
Hans Smees was not satisfied,he got problems with the new suspension...
and got a lot of work to do.


oink oink | råbacka brutus hofors 2007-05-18 (16:18)
vad härligt att få se lite gubb race då i slutet på maj.
fan cluben från hofors kommer ner och bjuder på färsk potatis från assen
om så önskas
Answer: Självklart räknar vi med att hela det galna gänget från skogarna kommer ner till lite mer civiliserade trakter då bygdens enda roadracing stjärna ska göra entré på banan igen. Ni är såklart grymt välkomna....
