SSV

In the SSV category, #201 Mitchel van den Brink and Bart van Heun crowned themselves overall winners for the third consecutive time (T3, T4 & Open, Open Light). With their victory, they naturally lead the standings in both the T4 & Open classes. A remarkable achievement, especially considering that this category is limited to 125 km/h, compared to the 135 km/h limit for T3.

The Spanish duo #207 Oscar Ral Verdu and Xavi Blanco Garcia secured second place and were also crowned winners of the T3 class. The South African team #218 Geoff Minnit and Rodney Burke completed the podium in third place.

Although the “SSV Open” category was included this time in the "T4 + Open combined" classification, we’d like to take a moment to honor the winners of this former subcategory. Congratulations to Harrie Renders & Theo van de Looy on their victory in this class. And the same goes for Simone Agazzi and Christal Vomiero, winners of the "Open Light" category.
