Enduro European Championship: day2 in Germany Second and last day of racing for the Enduro European Championship. It got very dramatic in the Youth class for the under 21s. After a major crash on the first day of racing, Manuel Verzeroli, who had been leading the championship until then, slipped back to second place. As a result, Frenchman Clement Clauzier was leading the standings. Not only the championship, but after a slip by Verzeroli in the very first special stage, also the day's classification. But in the penultimate special test a crash by Clauzier dropped him to fourth place. This meant that Verzeroli won both the day's classification and the Championship. It was a tearful finish for the Frenchman, who had already had his hand on the title. Defending champion Maurizio Micheluz finished second in the E1 class behind guest entrant Edward Hübner from Germany. This is the 14th time

Enduro European Championship: day1 in Germany Day 1 of the Borilli Enduro European Championship in Rüdersdorf, Germany, saw the Belgian Erik Willems crowned champion of all classes. The eleventh overall position was enough for the Husqvarna rider to grab the title. “It went pretty well at first, but then I had a heavy crash at the beginning of the second lap in the extreme test, which cost me a minute. From then on, it was really just a fight to actually make it to the finish in one piece". Erik Willems In the E2 class, however, the fight for the title is once again postponed to the last day. With a class win, Italian Alessandro Rizza could also already secure the title. A 23-point lead can no longer be caught by Martin Gottvald. The title is all the more remarkable as the victory was achieved with a 125cc bike. Alessandro

Enduro European Championship: the final in Germany The final of the Borilli European Enduro Championship 2022 will take place on 29-30 October in Rüdersdorf, Germany, directly east of the capital Berlin. The organising MC Woltersdorf already hosted the European Championship final in 2015 and even the Enduro GP raced here in 2018. The paddock is in the museum park, which depicts the eventful industrial history on site, especially the extraction and processing of limestone.

The Cross Test is about 6 km away from the paddock and leads over a slightly sandy meadow course. The Enduro test is only 4 km away and has several ascents and descents

Enduro European Championship: home-advantage used in Finland On the first day of the Borilli Enduro European Championship 2022 in Sipoo, Finland, local hero Eero Remes won on his Husqvarna: the Finn has already collected three World Championship titles in his active career and, although he actually wanted to hang up his helmet, he couldn't resist the temptation: "I only live 20 minutes from here and I know the terrain and the conditions well. It would be a shame not to have taken the chance to race" he said after the competition. At first it didn't look like Hein had the advantage, because in the demanding extreme test the small rider got stuck in the long stone field and lost more than 40 seconds, which dropped him to sixth place overall. But Remes continued to fight his way to the front and was actually able to snatch victory from his compatriot

Enduro European Championship: the 2022 Borilli European Enduro Championship enters its second half The 24 MX round 3 will take place this weekend in Sipoo, Finland, just 40 km east of the capital Helsinki. It’s the chance for Belgian Erik Willems to extend his lead in the overall standings: the Husqvarna rider had lost much of his lead due to technical problems in the last round and now it’s time to redeem. His toughest opponent, the Briton Dan Mundell, had already prepared himself the past days in Sweden, with similar ground conditions as in Sipoo. But the three-time Enduro World Champion Eero Remes can also be considered one of the favourites: the Finn will use his home race as guest start in the European Championship. The 2019 European Champion, Eemil Pohjola, is also one of the riders to keep an eye on at his home race. In the senior category,

Enduro European Championship Day 1 In the very last special stage, Belgian junior Erik Willems took the overall victory of the first day of riding at the opening round of the Borilli European Enduro Championship in Pietramontecorvino, Italy. Italian Enrico Rinaldi had been leading until the end, but the reigning European Junior Champion admitted that he was not fast enough in the cross test.
