The top of the overall ranking on this first day was animated by the German Henry Strauss who has a good feeling with the technical and demanding passages that characterize this round. The young German in fact competes in the German Hard Enduro Championship, and here in Meltewitz he has found the ideal terrain for his skills. Strauss won both the overall and that of the 125 Mini which he won with over a minute’s gap on the Italian Matteo Giuliani. Championship leader Emerick Vergote placed third. In the 50 Mini the ranking spoke Italian: completing the podium were Davide Cabass, who won on day 1 and strengthens his leadership in the championship, Nicolò Mancinelli and the new entry Niccolò Pratesi.

The race route, excellently prepared by the SHC Meltewitz motoclub, saw the riders face three special tests on each of the 4 laps and in order: Extreme Test, Cross Test and Enduro Test. Each test featured some technical passages on stones, trunks and tires, excellently overcome by our little champions. Before returning the bikes to the park ferme, the riders faced the Extreme Test for a fifth time. Tomorrow there will still be 4 laps to complete, but the fifth step in the extreme will not be carried out.
