The Junior U21 rider Max Ahlin showed everyone again that he is a threat for the top positions on his 125cc Husqvarna. The Swede was fifth overall on day one but on day two upped his game for third overall. He also won both days in the Junior U21 class and holds a healthy lead in the points.

The tight battle for the lead in the 250 two-stroke class unfolded in favour of Maurizio Micheluz, the veteran Italian topped both days and leaves Latvia on top of the point standings. 

In the Women’s Class, Nieve Holmes was not able to keep the dream rolling and has lost the championship lead in favour of Hanna Berzelius. The Brit dislocated her shoulder on day one and despite riding through pain and clinching two third places it was not enough to maintain the first place in the championship.
