“ I felt really good in the first test , but went down pretty hard and busted up my elbow a little ,” explained Robert after the race . “ It took a little while to get my rhythm back again . Josep and Andrea were on fire , but I had a decent day , and importantly , so did the USA Trophy team . The enduro test wasn ’ t easy on a 450 , but the tests were great . We ’ re in for a good week of racing .”
By mid-week , Team Italy had taken a sizeable lead of more than three minutes over Team Spain in second , with Team USA holding steady in third .
