WALKER in the lead! With a very technical track, we felt that the Akrapovic Super Pole at the AMV Seguros Grand Prix of Euskadi was going to be even more exciting than usual! The 5,000 spectators in the Bizkaia Arena were able to revel in an exceptional battle between the three main Prestige protagonists: Colton HAAKER (USA - Husqvarna), Alfredo GOMEZ (E - KTM) and Jonny WALKER (GB - KTM)! And of these three top riders Jonny WALKER was the most impressive! The
Factory KTM rider set the benchmark, being the only one to set a time under
43 seconds: 42''260. And in WALKER's duel with HAAKER to become the fastest
rider in the round, he was able to take advantage of the consistent pace set
by his teammate GOMEZ on this type of technical circuit, giving him two
points advantage ahead of the final... Indeed, the Spaniard took second
place ahead of the Californian by just point three of a second (43''366 vs
43''693). With his second Akrapovic Super Pole win of this season, WALKER is
leading in the standings ahead of HAAKER just before the final round in Albi.
And while GOMEZ, it seems, is already out of the race to win the € 1,500
prize money offered by Akrapovic Exhaust, he could still play an important
role in the final Super Pole of the season depending on his placement! It's
an exciting prospect ahead of the grand finale in Parc des Expositions in
Albi on March 18th! Tickets for the final in Albi are on sale at: Francebillets, superenduro.org, Leclerc Portes d'Albi and Ticketmaster!! Provisional Classification: 1. Jonny WALKER 8 pts; 2. Colton HAAKER 6 pts; 3. Alfredo GOMEZ 3 pts; 4. Taddy BLAZUSIAK 1 pts…
