MX: Van Beers Racing completes rider line-up

The Yamaha van Beers Racing Team has completed its 2010 rider line-up with the signing of Dutchman Klein Kromhof.

Kromhof joins the already confirmed Tom Söderström at Adri Van Beers’ eponymous squad and will ride in the MX2 World Championship as well as the Dutch National Championship. Kromhof finished fifth in European Championship in 2008 and made his World debut last season, taking a best finish of eight in his home race in Lierop riding a KTM.

Söderström will contest the MX1 class in the Dutch Open and World Championships. The young Swedish rider made several appearances in the top flight in 2009, scoring points in three out of four races, and will take on his first full season in 2010.

The team has also signed 15-year-old Robin Bakens, who will take part in the European 125cc Championship and the MX2 class of the Dutch Open series.
