Wat a party on the Gestelbeemden. A great initiative by MC Siberië who invited all the local residents, which resulted in a packed bike park. Nolan Cordens won on the lightning-fast circuit. Cédrik Grobben had bad luck in the first series, but got his revenge in the final series.

HEAT 1: The fourth test for the championship announced itself along the Gestelbeemden in Meerhout! Nolan Cordens and Brent Aerden dived into the obstacles as leaders with Kenny Janssens, Arno Van Mieghem and Cedric Grobben. Grobben was quickly able to move up to 2nd place and started chasing Cordens. Behind this duo Arno Van Mieghem surprised who got Kenny Janssens and Karel Schepmans behind him with Yentel Martens. Brent Aerden dropped back to 10th place. While Yentel Martens also did not get into his rhythm, Karel Schepmans crept closer to Van Mieghem. Consternation everywhere when after 2/3 of the race Cedric Grobben came to a standstill when he started chasing Nolan Cordens. The difference was constantly 2 to 3 seconds. Grobben was able to drive away after a pit stop. Revelation Karel Schepmans had meanwhile passed Arno Van Mieghem and was handed 2nd place by the loss of Grobben. Van Mieghem had to hurry to keep Kenny Janssens and Brent Aerden at bay. Cordens then nicely to victory ahead of Scheppie and Van Mieghem.

In the 250 cc class Dieter Vromans blasted to victory after having been in a duel with Kevin Schellens for laps. Jens Bogaerts came in a great 3rd.

In the B class the opening phase was dominated by local rider Tom Cuyvers. However, after 21 minutes he had to leave the win to Jens Steensels who preceded Jamie Haanen and Domien Vermeiren!

HEAT 2: The start of series 2 then ….. Brent Aerden, Yentel Martens and Grobben get off to the best start. Yentel Martens went for Cedric Grobben in the whoops, the metamorphosis of Yentel did not last long, because he is almost
immediately called to order by Grobben who took off. Cordens did not let this happen and stormed past Yentel Martens, with Bielen on 4 and Kenny Janssens on 5. The revelations of the first series Karel Schepmans and Arno Van Mieghem were less visible in this resumption. Cedric Grobben did not give Cordens a chance to compete for the series victory. That was the plaster on the wound because every point will be important in the
title debate! Cordens becomes 2 and also the final winner. A strong Brent Aerden had to sprint to keep Martens at bay. Bielen becomes 5 and Schepmans came back strongly to the 6th place, which made him
to his great surprise he would still come second in the overall result ahead of Grobben!
Kevin Schellens and Dieter Vromans were worth each other in the 250CC class, the victory in series 2 for Kevin Schellens gives him the overall victory, Jens Bogaerts comes in a nice 3rd.
In the B class Jens Steensels was in great form and rounded off this sunny day with a resounding final victory. Domien Vermeiren who can also hoist himself onto the podium.
