The fourth round of the EMX250 and EMX300 Motocross European Championships were held both this weekend in Maggiora (Italy) with wet and drizzly track conditions on Sunday races after the overnight rain.
In the EMX250 class, after the mix of points from the dryness of race one and wetness of race two it was J-Tech Honda’s Thomas Kjer Olsen’s time to shine with his first overall victory of the season. Yesterday’s race one winner Bud Racing Kawsaki’s Sullivan Jaulin still came away with second overall with the red plate holder and race two winner CNC doors KTM’s Steven Clarke rounding out the top three for the weekend.
The riders of the European Championship EMX300 were the first class out on the greasy Maggiora circuit this morning. Yesterday’s race one winner Italian TM Racing Team rider Samuele Bernardini had the crowd going wild once again today as he used their energy to steal yet another holeshot and went on to dominate and win by a healthy twenty-six seconds. In the overall result for the weekend, it was the Italians TM Racing Team’s Samuele Bernardini and Team Maddii Racing’s Marco Maddii to go one, two with Team HTS KTM’s Bence Szvoboda rounding out the podium.
Next round of both championships is scheduled in the Swedish track of Uddevalla on the 6th of July.
