The Danish MX3 GP proved to be fruitful ground for the JMRacing Team and their KTM riders with Sven Breugelmans taking the overall GP and in the championship lead, second only in the race to team-mate Alvaro Lozano.
The two KTM riders had already started their domination in Saturday's training, snapping the top two places in qualifying and signalling that they were a force to be reckoned with for Sunday's event.
Breugelmans, the team's Belgian rider is no stranger to the pressure of top racing so he went into the race intending to do what was necessary to extend his narrow 2-point lead over rival Christian Beggi. Sven's answer was simple. Driven by Lozano as his sharpest rival on the sandy Randers circuit, Sven went out and completed two faultless races to pick up a maximum of 50 points. Both races were the stuff dreams are made of for the team and KTM. Two holeshots for Sven who finished two second ahead of Lozano in race one and blew that out to a four second margin, again ahead of his team-mate in the second moto.
"I already noticed that Beggi and Martin were having trouble during qualifying so I was pretty confident that I could score a good result here in Denmark," Sven said. "Of course anything can happen in a GP so I am pleased to now have four consecutive race wins - two at the GP in Finland and now in Denmark."
KTM's Teillet new MX2 European Champion
In other top action in the European MX2 Championship Valentin Teillet of JMRacing went into the GP in Randers needing only 10 points to wrap up the championship. It was Dutchman and KTM rider Ceriel Klein Kromhof who won the second race and the event but Teillet picked up equal 47 points with the leader to emerge the season's champion. For the young Frenchman it was something of a formality as he only needed to secure 10 points for the title.
