HIGH FIVES WITH ALEX SNOW

October 02, 2007

19 year old Alex Snow has had a mixed season for Relentless Suzuki finishing 5th in the British under 21 championship and 17th in the Maxxis British championship - but there was one highlight from the year which will always be cemented in his mind and that was qualifying at his first attempt at the British GP at Donington.

MOTO: You qualified at your first attempt at racing GP’s at Donington, how did that feel?
ALEX: To start with it didn’t feel that real, it took until the Sunday when I was on the start line of the first race when it really sunk in. I think my nerves were over come by the excitement and atmosphere of the day.

MOTO: I was down in pit lane getting some great shots of your Dad doing cartwheels in your effort to qualify, what did he say afterwards?

ALEX: My Dad said it was the longest 30 minutes of his life, he just wanted the LCQ to be over and done with.

MOTO: You raced in the Maxxis MX2 class in 2007, did it go to plan?
ALEX: No not really, I was disappointed with the results and things just got off to a bad start – it just didn’t happen this year.

MOTO: You’re leaving Relentless Suzuki at the end of the year, what are your plans for next year?

ALEX: Yes, I think it was time for a change for me – there are deals on the table but nothing definite, I have a few decision to make in the next few days.

MOTO: That’s good news dude – The Supercross season is starting shortly are you racing any of the rounds?
ALEX: I don’t think so – at the moment it’s more important to sort out a good deal for 2008.

MOTO: Many thanks for that dude, hope you get the ride you want and make sure you let MOTO know first.
ALEX: No worries.
