Max wins first round of the Roemanian Championship

Hi guys,

The team and I have travelled all the way to Eastern Europe for the first and second rounds of the European Championship which begins next week, so in the mean time we decided to join in to the Baltic and Romanian Championship.

The track was awesome and with some of my English friends riding in the same class it was a lot of fun.

 

In the first moto I got a good start and was running in second. The leader Petar Petrov from Bulgaria was having a great race and we were having a great battle. On about the 5th lap I passed for the lead and gradually edged away to take the win.

 

With a two moto format it was going to be between us two again because second moto takes the overall.

I got another good start and with in a few turns was in the lead. I was pulling away on the second lap when my seat fell off again. Eventually I dropped back to 3rd but had a comfortable gap. It was hard having to stand up the whole way around for a 25min moto. My dad said it was a bit of Stefan Everts Training. About 2laps from the end Petrov went down and DNF.  This meant I would take the overall win.

 

I was a bit unlucky with the seat but with the overall win it was great!
