World Enduro Championship ’07 – Round 3, Marco de Canaveses, Portugal, 5-6.5.2007

With the GP of Portugal a much harder race than the GP of Spain that took place one week earlier dry, dusty and extremely rough special tests ensured a demanding race for all competitors. 

 

For Anders Eriksson the GP of Portugal was another frustrating event. With day one going well the seven-time world champion placed sixth and was pleased with the way he’d performed. Disappointingly on day two Anders’s bike stopped unexpectedly on the second enduro test, which resulted in the Swede losing one minute trying to re-start his bike. Dropping to 11th in class Anders finished the day in a disappointed 10th position.


Anders Eriksson: “The first day wasn’t so bad for me. I felt like my riding was good and I really enjoyed the day. I had a really bad second day though. There was a problem with my bike’s ignition and in the second enduro tests my bike stopped and it took about one minute to start it. I was down in 11th position and managed to pick up one place to finish 10th. Spain wasn’t good and neither has Portugal been so I just hope that things will get better for the GP of Italy.”
