The first day of the race ended with a resounding victory for Toni Bou, who added his fifth consecutive victory of the season and is firmly on his way to his ninth consecutive outdoor world title. The rider from Piera is especially strengthened after this first day of competition as his closest rival, Adam Raga, is off the podium.
It was a fantastic race for Jeroni Fajardo, who led the race after the first pass through the zones, but accumulated too many mistakes on a second lap where Toni Bou set a devastating pace that he maintained until the end of the race to achieve a comfortable victory. An important second place for Jeroni Fajardo, who continues his upward trend this season. It was also a good day for Fujinami, who after his serious knee injury is a revulsive to be back on the podium.
Raga, however, could not overcome a bad first lap and was only two points away from the podium, thus losing an important advantage to reach the end of the championship with options to intimidate Toni Bou.
Fifth place for Cabestany and sixth for the local Eddie Karlsson, who signs his best World Championship result shortly after his serious accident in training. Good for him. Bad day for Jaime Busto, who should not be expected to get a great result in every race as it is his first season as World Pro, but the great level achieved in the first four races makes a ninth position a bittersweet result.
In the World Cup , there was a good grid with 28 participants and high scores, showing the high level of the Swedish course. VIwan Roberts, followed by Oriol Noguera and Arnau Farre. Fourth place for Miquel Gelabert and fifteenth for Marc Riba.
Tomorrow, June 7, the second scoring race of the Swedish GP will be held
