Iacopi wins, Kras lags behind to the last heat
This weekend the final of the European 2-Stroke Championship will be held in Turkey and that of course makes for a very small starting field! Only six riders come to the Afyonkarahisar circuit and that makes the battle between Brad Anderson and Mike Kras even more intense. The Brit has the 'redplate' but the number of points between the two is exactly the same. The first round was won by Manuel Iacopi who managed to take over the lead from Kras after the Ecomaxx rider made a mistake. A little later Anderson also passes and Kras has to settle for two losing points. Tomorrow the last round of the season with a two point lead for Anderson!
