In the first race, the SuperEnduro veteran shot out of the blocks but found himself behind Husqvarna rivals Billy BOLT (GBR-Husqvarna) and Alfredo GOMEZ (ESP-Husqvarna), who both made a great start to the heat. However, they remained under constant pressure from the factory KTM rider. At the halfway point, BOLT, who had got into a strong lead at the end of the first lap, made a series of errors which threw him off guard. The young Brit then suffered a big crash on the ‘bridge section.’ Stunned and suffering pain, he saw BLAZUSIAK slip away from his grip. Alfredo GOMEZ (ESP-Husqvarna) put his bike in 2nd place after a tussle with Jonny WALKER (GBR-KTM). While WALKER himself was ready and willing to grab 3rd place in the race, after doing an absolutely incredible job to recover from the back of the field after a first corner crash. BOLT came over the line in 4th despite feeling the effects of his heavy fall.
