Een sterke vierde plaats tijdens de EK Slowakije voor Daan Bruijsten

23/05/2019 admin

Daan Bruijsten van het JTX-KTM scoort een mooie vierde en zevende plaats tijdens het Europees kampioenschap in Brezno Slowakije.
Voorafgaand aan de wedstrijd werden de drie proeven extreme, enduro en crossproef meermaals te voet verkend; in een twee en halve dag werd er weer meer dan 50km gewandeld. Vooral de endurotest en extreme test lagen zouden een uitdaging gaan worden door de vele wortels en gladde stenen. En de vochtige ondergrond zou het allemaal niet veel makkelijker gaan maken. Op de vooravond voor de wedstrijd werd de perfect geprepareerd 450 EXC-F JTX-KTM gekeurd en in het afgesloten parc-ferme geplaatst.

De dag begon wat moeizaam voor Daan

FIM Europe Enduro-Championship 1st day in Brezno / Slovakia

Albin Elowson wins first day in Brezno / Slovakia
The Swede Albin Elowson won the first day of the second round of this year’s European Enduro Championship in Brezno / Slovakia, in the overall standings: The Husqvarna rider gradually managed to get ahead of championship leader Kristof Kouble, who in the end added up to over half a minute.

Both riders also won their cubic capacity class, Elowson the four-stroke 250+cc class and Kouble the junior 2-3 class.

The junior class 1, with the smaller cubic capacity motorcycles, was won by the Finn Roni Kytönen, who had to overtake some slower riders on the track in front of him, otherwise he might have been even better than his fourth place in the overall standings.

How demanding the track and the special stages were is most evident in the women’s class: there the English rider Nieve Holmes won – although she got an additional penalty minute on the track: “I was in time at the time control in time, but I still had to refuel,” said the Sherco rider, who switched from motocross to enduro only two years ago. “I drove more cautiously and looked more closely so that I wouldn’t make any mistakes in the tests,” she revealed her secret recipe. That worked because the demanding specials offered many opportunities for mistakes.

The women also had to fight hard on the track, just three of the 13 female riders remained without penalty points.

But because bad weather is predicted for the second day, the organiser has installed some defusing measures on the stage as well as in enduro and extreme tests.

The complete results of all classes are attached.
