KTM's Remes takes two minor places at home E1 races
15.06.2009: Eero Remes of the KTM Enduro Factory Team, clearly at home on the familiar terrain of his homeland Finland, claimed two third places in Round Four of the E1 World Championship in Riihimaki, just
Eero Remes of the KTM Enduro Factory Team, clearly at home on the familiar terrain of his homeland Finland, claimed two third places in Round Four of the E1 World Championship in Riihimaki, just 69 km from the capital Helsinki.
Teammate Simone Albergoni of Italy was fourth on Saturday and fifth on Sunday to pick up enough championship points to retain his second place in the standings behind the dominant Finn, Mika Ahola.
Remes started the weekend well at home in Finland scoring a third place on Saturday. He was engaged in a battle with fellow countryman Mika Ahola for the first part of the race and while he was faster in the cross tests lost time in the extreme tests. "Eero was very fast today but then he had two crashes in the second half of the race and lost quite a bit of time," team boss Fabio Farioli reported.
After Sunday's race, Farioli said it had been a great contest between his two factory riders and Thomas Oldrati, the KTM-supported rider. While admitting that the championship leader Mika Ahola was "too fast", Farioli said: "Remes was very fast this weekend but he had too many crashes. Albergoni on the other hand was not really 100 percent and Oldrati was also very fast. All in all we have to be satisfied with this result."
