Sebastian Kartfjord wins Norwegian Natls - Rounds 1+2

By Redline Norway on April 26, 2010

This weekend was the two first rounds of the Norwegian
national series held on Sola BMX track and Sandnes BMX
track.

 
Day one racing was intense and close. Seb won all of his
motos and got second behind Sifiso Nhlapo in the semi
final. Sifiso is a world class rider(W3 in 08`) from South Africa
training and traveling with the norwegian team. With him joining
the national rounds the level is stepping up even more. In the
final Sebastian put it together with a great start and won from
start till finish with the fastest lap of the day. A great win for
Seb. Top three podium:
 
1. Sebastian Kartfjord        NOR/Spinn-Redline
2. Sifiso Nhlapo                   RSA/Intense/Red Bull
3. Andre Fossaa Aguiluz    NOR/Spinn-Redline

Day2, Sandnes, round 2
Day 2 looked to be another success for Seb. The race was on his home track in Sandnes
where he has been unbeaten in theese type of races for the last years. Seb continued
where he left saturday and won all his motos and the semi final. In the final he touched the
gate with his frontwheel, just enough for Andre Fossaa Aguiluz to get out first. Down the
second straight witch is the fastest on the track, he caught up with traffic while coming from
behind. Seb tangeled bars with one of the other riders while in 3rd and went down hard.
This ended his chances for a podium on the day. He hit his head hard but is reported to be OK!
 
 
NEXT RACE: EUROPEAN ROUNDS 3+4 ITALY, PERUGIA
Next weekend Seb goes to Italy for round 3+4 of the Europan Championships. The following
 weekend is leg 2 of the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup in Copenhagen.
