GP CHALLENGE (24/8/19) SCORES:
1 Matej Zagar 11+3, 2 Niels-Kristian Iversen 11+2, 3 Max Fricke 10+3
4 Martin Vaculik 10+2, 5 Anders Thomsen 9, 6 Pontus Aspgren 9, 7 Jurica Pavlic 9, 8 Aleksandr Loktaev 9, 9 Kenneth Bjerre 8, 10 Martin Smolinski 7, 11 Craig Cook 6, 12 Peter Ljung 6, 13 Robert Lambert 5, 14 Mikkel Michelsen 5, 15 David Bellego 3, 16 Chris Harris 2, 17 Matic Ivacic DNR, 18 Norbert Magosi DNR.
Slovenian star Matej Zagar booked his place in SGP 2020 and admitted his GP Challenge victory in Gorican is “bigger than winning a GP.”
Zagar topped the podium at the FIM Speedway Grand Prix qualification round in Croatia on Saturday and joins runner-up Niels-Kristian Iversen and third-placed Max Fricke in securing a World Championship place for next year.
Ljubljana-born Zagar beat Iversen in a run-off for first spot after they tied on 11 points. But the result still ensures both current SGP riders have guaranteed their place in the 2020 series, regardless of where they finish this term.
Fricke then joined them on the podium by winning a run-off with Slovak star Martin Vaculik for third after they finished level on 10. Vaculik is currently fourth in the World Championship and could still qualify for SGP 2020 by finishing inside this year’s top eight.
