\"fimisdeday3\"<\/a>Day three of the FIM International Six Days Enduro (ISDE) in Navarra, Spain served up some very different riding conditions as rain both prior to and during the day resulted in a slippery and demanding seven hours in the saddle for all competitors. Despite the change in weather the USA\u2019s World Trophy team continued their battle with Italy as Kailub Russell \u2013 KTM, Layne Michael \u2013 Husqvarna, Taylor Robert \u2013 KTM and Thad Duvall – Husqvarna extended their lead to just over one and a half minutes. In the Junior World Trophy competition Sweden remain out front, just under two minutes ahead of the USA with Italy third. Australia continue to lead the Women\u2019s World Trophy.<\/p>\n

In stark contrast to the dry and dusty conditions of day one and two, day three served up not only a new course, but also some extremely demanding special tests. Separated by just two seconds come the end of the day, Spain and the USA finished as the two fastest World Trophy teams. Italy continued their good form in the event in third with Great Britain and Portugal fourth and fifth separated by thirty-two seconds on the day. In the overall World Trophy competition the USA extended their lead to one-minute and thirty-five seconds over Italy with Spain third, Great Britain fourth and Portugal fifth.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was definitely a different kind of day today,\u201d explained Taylor Robert. \u201cI\u2019ve had some good results in slippery, muddy conditions in the World championship races this season so I wasn\u2019t too worried about the conditions. The tests were certainly slippery in places, but I kept mistakes to a minimum and had a good day. It was cool to be riding on some fresh trails. For me it was a great day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sweden continued to lead the way in the Junior World Trophy team competition, winning day three by just over one-minute. Italy managed to finish fifteen seconds ahead of USA with Finland and Great Britain fourth and fifth. The big news from the day was that Spain dropped from second to sixteenth following the DNF result of one of their riders. At the half way stage of the competition Sweden\u2019s Junior World Trophy team riders Mickael Persson \u2013 Yamaha, Albin Elowson \u2013 Husqvarna and Jesper Borjesson \u2013 Husqvarna sit one-minute fifty-five seconds ahead of the USA with Italy and France third and fourth respectively.<\/p>\n

Australia\u2019s Women claimed a third consecutive class win in the Women\u2019s World Trophy team competition, ending the day ahead of Spain, Germany and the USA. In the overall classification the Aussie trio of Tayla Jones \u2013 Yamaha, Jemma Wilson \u2013 Yamaha and Jessica Gardiner \u2013 Yamaha now sit just under three and a half minutes clear of Spain with Germany in third.<\/p>\n

The fastest overall individual rider on day three was Taylor Robert \u2013 KTM, who finished close to eight seconds ahead of Portugal\u2019s Luis Correia \u2013 Beta who in turn just edged out Australian Daniel Sanders \u2013 KTM.<\/p>\n

Josep Garcia \u2013 Husqvarna topped the Enduro 1 class, as the youngster finished ahead of countryman Victor Guerrero \u2013 KTM with Portugal\u2019s Luis Oliveira – Yamaha in third.
\nAs the day\u2019s fastest outright rider Taylor Robert \u2013 KTM also haeded the Enduro 2 category ahead of fellow USA World Trophy team rider Kailub Russell \u2013 KTM with Jaromir Romancik \u2013 KTM third. Sitting second, third and fourth overall for the day Luis Correia \u2013 Beta, Daniel Sanders \u2013 KTM and Danny McCanney \u2013 Husqvarna finished as the top three in Enduro 3, separated by just twenty-three seconds.<\/p>\n
