DThe final race of the 85cc class, in turn, ended according to a magnificent scenario. One lap before the end, there were still four or five candidates in the running for the title. Ultimately, Pariks Cirulis claimed the coveted crown.
A blistering start for Arthur Annelot, who also took Patriks Cirulis, Robin Mooses, Liam Morette, and Haakon Ronning with him in his holeshot. Not up to par in the first instance: Martins Cirulis, who did climb quickly from 10 to 7 and then to 4. But most notably absent was series winner Harry Dale, who was only at a meager 20.th got away with his place. Fortunately, things also moved quickly for Dale in the first round, with a gain of five places.
After three laps, Annelot led by a few meters over Patriks C., Mooses, and Martins C. Theo Kolts had dropped to fifth place, while Dale was sniffing around the top ten. Morette was dropped from the wheels.
A snack for the BeNe drivers: Kenzo Jaspers at 18, Mike Pijnen at 28, Timéo Mohring at 30.
Annelot and Patriks C. broke away from the rest. Mooses was riding practically in no man's land in front of Martins C. and Theo Kolts. While Dale's advance proceeded gradually, yielding an eighth place in lap four, nearly half a minute behind the leaders, Annelot was the virtual champion, followed by Martins C. and Mooses, who had the same number of points. But there were still 8 minutes to go, and in the meantime, Dale had dropped to seventh and virtually fell just off the podium. Moreover, the gap to Kolts was also 8 seconds. At the front, Annelot and Patris C. continued to battle. The Latvian could also still enter the title race via a race win. In that case, it would be over and out for Annelot. To make matters even more interesting: Mooses also sensed his chance to potentially lay claim to the title via a 3-2 score. But time was still running out for both the three leaders and Dale, not past Kolts, though it was closing in. With two laps to go, Dale finished sixth, which was not enough to win, but did secure a potential podium spot. However, the decision seemed to lie within the top three. The tension rose further when Patriks C. – first place not yet mentioned – managed to take the lead, bringing four drivers level – 40 points – for the title. Mooses, Dale, and Martins C. included. And unfortunately for Annelot, a title contender for 95 percent of the race, who suddenly found herself in a quagmire of results due to Patriks' move. It should also be noted that the French driver Tim Lopes moved from 12th to 5th place, thereby jeopardizing Dale's title chances.
The series victory unexpectedly brought a title for Patriks Cirulis—after the silver at the Junior World Championship! Broer Martins finished third, with Robin Mooses in between, two Latvian riders, and an Estonian. Does that need further explanation? Dale must be kicking himself. A decisive move on Lopes would have earned him the title. The same goes for Annelot, who just missed out on the hot seat until the very end!
Kenzo Jaspers finished 12thdeMike Pijnen dropped to 23rd, and Timéo Mohring fell back to 37th place late in the game.
