This race was wild! From skies and burnouts during the parade this event brought the entertainment from day one! Prologue consisted of 2 wet but fast days where 1300 riders pushed flat out to secure themselves a starting position on the first row for the main race. 10 rows of 50 riders lined up all the take on the iron giant.

The main race started off with total chaos and the surprises didn’t end there. We discuss all the highlights from the Sunday as well as the final results. We absolutely thrived watching the Red Bull live of this event and highly recommend this to anyone who hasn’t watched it already.
