The Australian racer has to capture as many points as possible in a bid to shake-off Denmark’s Greg Hancock and Poland’s Tomasz Gollob who are within striking distance of the silver medal.

Over the last three years, Crump has been successful at Lonigo. He reached the A-final on all three occasions and took a win there in 2005 and 2006.

“I use Lonigo in the off season for testing my engines and setting up my bikes so I know the track well,” said Crump. “The track is similar to the tracks in Australia, so I like racing there. I have a lot resting on my shoulders right now but I am used to the pressure after 17 years of racing. I just need to perform at my best and bring home another win.”

Crump is currently second in the overall points standings. Crump is an 18-time Grand Prix winner. He has used K&N Engineering products during his entire racing career. “K&N makes the best filter on the market,” he said. “I can also depend on extra filtration and additional horsepower every time I race.”
