Bauer was back in the middle of the pack. Wolsink flew by DeCoster to be the first one around. DeCoster was second. Then came Sigmans followed by Bauer.• Ake Jonsson was next. Van VeJthoven was back in eleventh. He moved up to sixth on lap two. Ake Jonsson was on the move. By lap three he was third ahead of Wigmans and Bauer, Bauer's Maico was down on power. On the fifth lap, Jonsson was second and closing on Wolsink with DeCoster third and Van Velthoven fourth. Then came the shock: Bauer was out, his carb had messed up, loading up the engine. DeCoster was World Champ again for the third time, and the race wasn't even over - except for Bauer. DeCoster got the word from a Japanese mechanic in English on the pit board "Bauer Out". (Why do Japanese talk to their Belgian riders in English?). Word came over the PA, "Roger DeCoster is World Champion". DeCoster kept going but Van Velthoven got by to take third on lap fourteen. Vic Eastwood worked up to seventh for his best finish all year in a GP. He lost a head stay bolt in the first heat. So came the end of the second moto and the .end of the 500 GP season. DeCoster was champ (and third overall here) with 145 points, Bauer ended up with 143. Neither rider scored a poin t in Holland. Up on the winner's stand, washing out the dirt, were Ake Jonsson and Roger DeCoster. Jaak Van Velthoven rode up a few minutes later, all washed up, on his Yamaha mini. There were going to be a lot of corks popped tonight. • Results Moto 1: 1. Ake Jonsson (Yam), Swed. 2. Jaak Van Velthoven (Yam), Bel. 3. Chr. Hammargren (Yam), Swed. 4. Roger DeCoster (SUZ), Swed. 5.
