Berscheid takes the lead in the BeNeDu Cup after winning Wisskirchen
Last Saturday the second match of the BeNeDu cup was in Wisskrchen, Germany. This competition resulted in a German podium. The day's victory went to Arne Berscheid with two first and fifth places. With this result, Berscheid also takes the lead in the standings of the BeNeDu cup MX 2 youth. With a first, second and fourth place, second place went to Philipp Garcke. Henry Hauswirth completed the German podium with a second, third and fourth place in the heats. He was followed by the best Dutchman of the day: Amani Saraç with two second places and a twelfth place in the heats. With this he kept the Belgian Seth Priem behind him, who managed to achieve a third, fourth and eighth place in the heats.
In the standings, second place goes to Saraç. He follows Berscheid by seven points. Garcke follows again at three points. Alex van Weerdenburg is in fourth place and Hauswirth follows behind on four points. The best Belgian is Troy Dendooven in ninth place. With a difference of 19 points between the first five, it promises to be an interesting final match. Can the Germans hold out in the heavy sand of Lommel or will it be a Dutchman who will take the credit? This competition will be held on October 7.
