rider on the opening lap, forcing
him out of the race with a broken
collarbone.
With his main rival out of the
race, Adamo looked to maxi-
mize his points swing. The KTM
rider then took command and
went on to take only the second
moto win of his career, despite
having one overall victory. He
won again in race two. A perfect
day for Adamo saw him score
maximum points and extend his
lead to 60 over Geerts, who will
most likely have to miss upcom
-
ing races.
Simon Langenfelder is catch-
ing steam after a strong podium
at the previous GP. He again
ran up front in Finland with
a holeshot and an eventual
second-place finish in race one.
He crashed on the opening lap
of race two but mounted an
impressive charge as the moto
wore on. At the checkers, he
climbed as far as second place,
going 2-2 for second on the day.
Liam Everts showed good
pace in the sand with third over
-
all. He ran up front all day and
even led for a time in race two.
Eventually, he lost the top spot
but still carried strong 3-4 scores
for another overall podium.
Everts' consistency is paying off
as he is now third in the champi
-
onship standings.
"I already won my first GP in
Trentino but doing it like this
with two race wins is really
special," said Adamo. "I didn't ex
-
pect this because it's still a sand
track, but I made it work. Now I
want to keep working and keep
going on this way."
