VMCF: Frederic Weigert continues his winning streak in Koningshooikt
The VMCF had a real highlight at the legendary Fort of Koningshooikt. Many riders and especially many spectators showed up for the classic two-day event. In the inters, Frederic Weigert continues to string together victories, as he once again won both series.
However, the first heat started very chaotic with a crash in the first corner involving Jonas Salaets, Gianni Van Dievel and Karel Schepmans. Frederic Weigert could have taken full advantage of the crash and dived under the famous bridge as leader ahead of Dennis Wagemans. However, the Yamaha rider made a mistake in the third corner, allowing him to restart from the back. Roy Sillien was the next rider to try Weigert, but after a small slip, the Suzuki rider also had to acknowledge his superiority in Frederic Weigert. Junior Slegers achieved a lonely third place ahead of Dennis Wagemans and the best MX2 rider, Kristof Van Vaerenbergh.
In the final series, the spectators were served a copy of the first heat in which the Weigert-Sillien duo dominated the heat. But just like in the opening heat, no one could place an attack on Frederic Weigert. Sillien finished second again ahead of Jonas Salaets, who after a great battle took third place from Karel Schepmans and Dennis Wagemans. The best MX2 rider was once again Kristof Van Vaerenbergh, but most attention went to the young Wannes Van de Voorde who easily rode back from the last position to ninth place on this difficult circuit. In the B class the victory went to the returning Bastien Houche
Next weekend the VMCf will travel to Attenhove in Limburg, where another classic is on the program.
