versus MacClugage and Menard versus Poret and in Freestyle ‘the
Rok’ versus brother Nac.
In Heat 1 there was elation for Teddy Pons and despair for Jeremy
Perez, Pons sweeping to the UIM-ABP Runabout GP1 World title
taking his third win of the year, with title rival and fellow Frenchman
Perez breaking on lap 4.
Starting from pole it was Perez who made the better start to take
lead with Pons in second place, but on lap 4 having opened up a five
second lead his race and title hopes ended. Pons hit the front and
was able to control the race and hold off the challenge of Qatar’s
Mohammed Al Heidus, the two racing line astern to the chequered
flag with Pons winning by the narrowest of margins.
Sweden’s Lars Akerblom equalled his best result of the year, moving
up from fifth passing Qatar’s Thamer Al Darwish on lap 3 to finish
third ahead of Poland’s Andrzej Wisniewski, with Mattia Fracasso
cutting his way through the pack from ninth to finish fifth.
But following a post-race protest by Akerblom, upheld by race
officials, Qatar’s Al Heidus was disqualified for missing a turn buoy,
moving the Swede up to second and giving Wisniewski his first top-
three finish.
Jeremy Poret moved to within four points of winning a third Ski GP1
World title after a breath taking last corner win over Chris MacClugage.
Poret conceded to pole sitter MacClugage from the start and trailed
him for 10 laps, when a mistake by the American allowed him too
close to within a couple of seconds, then snatching the win on the
final corner of the last lap with MacClugage taking the penalty buoy,
third place going to Spaniard Nacho Armillas.
