finish. Oliver's crash put Sacha
Coenen into the lead with points
leader Simon Laengenfelder
closing in after a sixth-place
start. As the laps wore on,
Laengenfelder's pace was clearly
on another level, and he passed
Sacha Coenen for the lead in
the second half of the race. He
cruised to victory with Sacha
Coenen and Oliver rounding out
the podium.
Laengenfelder made his
championship intent clear with
a big holeshot in race two. The
German rider went untouched
for another moto win, leading all
16 laps to the checkered flag.
His dominant ride earned him a
larger gap in the championship,
now 52 points over his KTM
teammate, Adamo.
"It went perfect," said
Laengenfelder. "It was a great
weekend. Especially coming
back in that first race from sixth
to first, that was a great feeling.
And backing it up in the second
race is awesome. Now we have
two weekends of break, so I
think we have time to recover
and then start the last push."
Liam Everts finished second
in race two and earned second
overall with 6-2 scores. Yama
-
ha's Thibault Benistant crossed
the line
third, but third overall
belonged to Sacha Coenen, who
finished 2-6 on the day.
It was another tough day for
the defending champion, Kay de
Wolf, as the Husqvarna rider fin
-
ished outside the top five in both
motos.
His 7-8 finishes gave
him 10th overall, as he lost more
valuable points in the champion-
ship. He's third in the standings,
70
down from Laengenfelder.
"It was definitely one of those
tougher weekends," said de Wolf.
"Crashing in practice and then
again in qualifying meant I was
on the back foot right from the
start, but I gave it everything in
both motos. I wasn't able to fight
right at the front, but we still took
points and limited the damage."
The series sees a two-week
break before continuing at the
new Iitti-Kymi Ring venue in Fin
-
land for round 13, July 13.
