Rounds 5 and 6 of the UEC European League series were held in Grandson (Switserland). Our European Factory Team was almost complete, only Marie Hossay was absent due to an injury. The Team had some good results with most riders making it to the mains on both days. Rune Deburchgraeve has been consistent making every main in this year’s series. He took 4th place on Saturday and on Sunday he won the Main event. His first international victory puts him in 3rd place of the Boys 13/14 ranking. Congrats Rune!Another rider that was longing for his first big international win this year was Kristens Krigers. The Latvian Junior was the man to beat this weekend with some serious pull on the first straight.
