How are you preparing for the MXGP season? Are you assuming the season will go ahead as normal? Or are you just planning on riding 20 rounds, wherever they are, on whatever race track? There are a lot of title winners in the class and I think it will be an interesting season with a lot of battles. It was tough but overall, it turned out really well and IвЂ™m pleased with the effort that the whole team put in, in order to achieve the title.Д®veryone says that defending a title is harder, it seemed that way last year, but do you think 2021 will be even more difficult?Дefending a title is always difficult, but winning the first time is very difficult too! You have to be on your вЂA gameвЂ™ every week, try to be consistent, to stay injury-free and I think 2021 will be another good year of racing with a lot of top riders in the class. A lot of new things happened to us with the schedule and the testing and the travel, but as a racer we always need to find the motivation to train hard, to keep putting in the effort and to be focused 100%. Last year was a difficult year for everyone.

Last year was full of ups and downs, how difficult was it mentally to keep focused and maintain such a high level of performance? The class is full of really good riders though and it is good to see how the racing goes over there. IвЂ™ve been watching the supercross and I was impressed with Barcia who won the last three opening rounds, which is unbelievable, but Roczen seems consistent and has now won so thatвЂ™s good. Have you been watching the SX? What do you think of the results so far and who has impressed you? Slovenia has many good sports people in a wide variety of activities but I think motocross is growing in my country, with many young children and people wanting to start riding a bike so IвЂ™m very happy that the coverage is inspiring others to take up the sport. Slovenia had a good year for sports, is motocross getting good coverage compared with other sports? So it was different but still a good reaction and it makes me feel extremely proud.

It was a bit different though because I couldnвЂ™t go anywhere to do interviews or collect awards or the welcome party that weвЂ™ve done before. What was the reaction in Slovenia after you won the 2020 championship?

A few small things but overall, very similar so I still feel very comfortable with it. The bike is quite similar to last year, with a few changes so it feels close to what I won the 2020 world championship with. Is it easier this year, than last year, because you are riding the same title-winning Honda CRF450RW, so there isnвЂ™t as much testing? I took a lot of time to recharge the batteries and it felt good to have the break but now IвЂ™m hungry to begin. Otherwise, it was just a relaxed, chilled time because everything is closed. When I had the three weeks off, we didnвЂ™t go on holiday, and instead friends came round and we just hung out. With the all the rules about staying at home, there wasnвЂ™t a lot of choice to go anywhere or do things.

IвЂ™m sure once we start racing, it will all feel natural again though.Дid the travel restrictions change any of your plans at all? Then the GPs usually start late February or beginning of March so this year all feels a bit delayed. In some ways it feels different because usually in January IвЂ™m in Sardinia but this year I spent it all pretty much at home. The plan is to do the three Italian races and then head to Oman, and I canвЂ™t wait to get started racing again.Дoes it feel different that than previous years, with the later finish from the previous season and the later start to the 2021 season? Now, I am in Sardinia and I will stay here for month or so, training hard on and off the bike. I was training hard in December and then I had a few weeks off. How has your off-season gone? What has your training schedule been? This year, due to the late finish of 2020 campaign, the first race in Oman will drop the gate over a month later on 3 rd April, so we caught up with the reigning MXGP champion to see how his preparations for 2021 have been going: Last season Team HRCвЂ™s Tim Gajser started off the 2020 season by going eight-one at the MXGP of Great Britain on 29 th February / 1 st March.
