Coupe de l’Avenir: Race Results

Just like in the qualification race, Sweden went 1-2 in the first moto of the day! However, this time it was Anton Gole who won from fellow Swede, Alvin Ostlund. Belgian, Jago Geerts put in a brilliant ride to finish third and had the fastest lap of the moto!

Team GB had two riders in the top ten with Garland in eighth and Gilbert in tenth, two good rides. As for team Ireland, Jason Meara had a crash when in the top ten so had to settle for thirteenth but his speed is good. James Mackrel ended up in twentieth and McCaw in twenty-sixth, solid results!
