The circuit of Brezice, in Slovenia, hosted the first round of European Motocross Championship 65cc, 85cc and Open.
After the heavy rain on Friday, the decision to cancel the free practice was taken. The pre-qualification started at 12.30 in good weather condition: windy, dry, sun and about 10 degrees maximum.
There were 13 riders in 65 cc, 33 riders in 85 cc and 31 riders in the Open class.
During qualification there were no big surprises. In the front position there were the same riders who had the best pre-qualifying times. Only in the Open class we had some surprises, as we saw in pre-qualifying the Irt family in first 2 and Gercar in 3th place.
The qualifying race started with one rider who started to early and many followed and got blocked at the startinggate. Therefore it was the 7th qualified Kragelj to win the race before Bartos and Molnar. Both Irt boys and Klemen Gercar made their way up from back in the pack and all three managed to be in top 10. For sure this will bring nice races tomorrow.
In 65 and 85 the French are on top, respecively with Florian Miot and Moreau Strubhart while in the Open class Petr Bartos from Czech Republich is ay the moment the only possible block in between the Sloveniën homeriders Saso Kragelj and Aljosa Molnar.
