Nagl said he was satisfied with his seventh position in timed practice o Saturday and was looking forward to Sunday's race, his first as a full factory rider with the Red Bull KTM Team.

Max Nagl: "I have a very good feeling. With such a difficult track conditions I am happy to be seventh, because I am not usually so good in qualifying. Tomorrow I would like to take the holeshot, to stay up with the front riders and to finish in the top five. I used to prefer hard tracks but I have been training a lot on sand and now I think I am even faster on sand."

More rain and even the possibilities of some snow is forecast for Sunday's race on the Dutch circuit.
