Dhe first edition of the Bastogne GP has already started well for our compatriots today. The rain did not bother Jeremy van Horebeek and Clement Desalle. The qualifying races were cancelled today due to the heavy rain to save the circuit. So the starting positions for tomorrow were determined in a qualifying session. In the MX2 class, the pole position went to Jeremy van Horebeek, who despite his injury drove the fastest time.

In the MX1 we find no fewer than three Belgians in the top 5. Clement Desalle drove the fastest time, followed by Ken de Dycker and Tanel Leok. Kevin Strijbos rode a strong fifth time while Cairoli only finished in seventh place.

Tomorrow the rain will give way to bright sunshine and we will undoubtedly see great matches! The Belgian podium chances are already very high after today. So everyone to Bastogne!
