European Scooter Trophy EST Jüterbog race

Race report on the final race of EST 2021 in Jüterbog on October 09.10.2021th, XNUMX

The Scooter Center is a sponsor of the EST and the organizers of the European Scooter Trophy and the European PitbikeTrophy called all participants together for the season finale in Ju? terbog. Due to the corona, it was a short and therefore even more exciting season. In a full field of drivers the motto of the season was: Every point counts and failures cost the championship! After the turbulent 2nd run in Wittgenborn, the spell of the popularity was not broken. More than 100 sprinter drivers at a day event were another Record milestone for the 2021 season. And it was about everything. No participant in the 9 classes was already sure of the championship. And so it got fast and exciting. The conditions for the run were ideal. Asphalt, weather and mood were at their peak and so the full picke-pack schedule could be filled with life

 

The results of the weekend by class:

Class 1 - Rookies by Scooter-Attack:

Norman Neufang drove to the race in Jüterbog with a clear margin of 23 pts. Between the second-placed Drath and the third Kugel, it was much closer to the point with 6 points. The previous season impression was confirmed in qualifying. Neufang set the best time among the rookies with a gap of three tenths ahead of Drath and Janz. Kugel was able to keep up with the trio in 4th place.

The first race got off to a brilliant start right from the start. Drath collected Neufang straight away. However, he was able to counter quickly. Janz gave everything to keep up with the top duo. Neufang was able to pull away bit by bit. Everything was already out after a final victory when Neufang had to give up in the 12th lap. With that, Drath raced straight to the finish line in first place ahead of Janz, who had slipped to third place in the meantime, but was able to take second place in front of Kugel in the end.

Things went better for Neufang in the second race. Even at the start he didn't give Drath a chance and rightly showed why he is at the top of the championship among the rookies. But Drath was not impressed and attached himself to the rim of Neufang. The duo set themselves apart from the rest of the chasing field early on. For Drath it was the opportunity to reach for the stars again. A win would be enough for him for the championship. But Neufang stayed ice cold and made no mistakes. This time, Kugel took third place. Janz couldn't keep up the speed from the first race and had to let Kugel go.

In the end it was again wafer-thin for Neufang. The whopping advantage of 23 points melted down to 3 points ahead of Drath. For Kugel it was 3rd place in the final ranking of the 2021 season.

Class 2 - SuperSport

The championship in the SuperSport was characterized by a four-way battle. Richter was 2 points ahead of Thönnern and Sperling and Alles also had a good chance of winning the whole year with no more than 11 points difference in the ranking. In the qualification, Sperling first escaped the entire field. More than 1 second behind Depta, who placed second, was an announcement for the race. D`Alessandro came in 3rd place.

In the first race, Depta started confidently and immediately passed Sperling. He in turn countered immediately and was able to recapture first place. Pedersen showed a very strong performance, working his way up to second place. As in qualifying, Sperling at the top gave full throttle and raced away from the field. The duel of the race was fought by Pedersen and D'Alessandro. Both fought like lions. Richter could barely keep up with the pace. Sperling, who seemed to be the sure winner in the first race, retired shortly before the end with a technical defect. In the meantime, Pedersen was able to pull away from D'Alessandro and drove through the

Failure of Sperling as the winner of the first race across the finish line. Richter and Depta followed behind D'Alessandro.

The start of the second race was also turbulent. Depta leads the way as the starting winner, followed by Pedersen. In lap 2 the field was rearranged and Depta had Sperling on her neck, followed by D'Alessandro and Pedersen. Sperling fell and had to re-line up in the back of the field. On lap 5, D'Alessandro crashed into the tire wall before the start-finish. As a result, the race had to be interrupted. After an interruption of almost 20 minutes, the restart started. At the end of the race, Pedersen won, followed by a strong Rene? Judge. Third place went to Thönnern before everything. Everything had to plow through the entire field during the two races because the timed practice could not be completed and could collect important points for the championship.

In the championship, Richter was able to expand his narrow lead over his opponent Thönnern and can call himself the winner of the SuperSport 2021. Joshua Alles was happier third in the championship.

Class 3 - Expert by Scooter-Attack

The championship in the Expert class was completely open before Jüterbog. The chaos rain race in Wittgenborn had brought the climax to tension. The Dane Andersen was 9 points ahead of Ong in the championship, who in turn was only 2 points behind Harder.

The first trial of strength was felt in the qualification. Ong thundered a perfect lap into the asphalt with 1: 04.369. The Polini Cup guest starter from Italy Lanzilao was only able to cross the line with a distance of 3 hundredths. With a view to the championship, Andersen was even further behind on starting position 5. Harder placed third.

The tension was bursting before the race. After the start lights went out, it got heated. Lukas fell after a braking mistake and pulled Schmitt with him, who tried to evade. Both drivers were able to get up again and continue the race. At the front, Ong gave everything and even managed to keep Lanzilao in check for the rest of the race. Andersen couldn't keep up with the speed of the management team. Harder was unlucky. After a fall in the fourth lap, he had to retire with a flat tire and put aside all hopes for the championship. The beneficiary was Andersen, who won a place. Ong was almost crossing the start and finish line at the front when suddenly there was no performance. Lanzilao and Andersen couldn't believe it and overtook Ong so close to the finish line that Ong had to give up important points for the championship to Andersen. Crazy.

In the second race the cards were reshuffled again. Andersen only had to stay on the scooter and Ong had to hope that the dawn would fail and that he could achieve a good position himself. And that's how it started right away. Ong ahead. Lanzilao, Andersen and Harder followed. Harder was snappy and quickly grabbed Andersen. But he has other plans and immediately went into a duel. Lanzilao retired in the middle part of the race after a crash. Andersen and Harder fought groove after groove for second place. In the end, Andersen was able to prevail with the blink of an eye. Ong finished his race flawlessly at the front and was able to secure the day's victory.

The new radiant EuropeanScooterTrophy champion in the expert class comes from Denmark and is called Stefan Andersen. Congratulations! Yannik Ong was able to take a great second place and showed the rest of the field in overall speed that he has a clear claim to the championship in 2022. Third place goes to the former master Marc Harder, whom nobody should write off. 2022 will certainly continue as brilliantly as 2021 ended.

Class 4 - Supramatic & BigBore

The championship in class 4 was a three-headed race. Unfortunately Lövenich did not start as the leader, so the podium under Moutschka and Zehe should be settled. Both drivers were tied on points. And in the qualification Moutschka clearly stood out from toe. In third place was Kazilas much further down.

Moutschka was able to win both races. The scooter just ran perfectly. Zehe also had to pass early in the first race and leave the field. This allowed Kazilas to move up to 2nd place in the first race. Third was Gronow. In the second race, Zehe was able to get involved again and finished the last race of the season ahead of Kazilas in second place.

In the championship, Moutschka had an easy time with the two victories and was able to confidently take the victory in class 4. The second championship course goes to Zehe vor Lövenich.

Class 5 - PitBike Stock by Scooter-Attack

Brzeski against Wittwer was the duel of the championship. Brezski was able to pull out a 10 point lead to Jüterbog. For Förster there was more of a theoretical chance of making the leap to the top. In the qualification you could see the difference clearly. The two opponents were separated by 1,5 seconds.

In the first race, however, Brezski had to give priority to the guest starters. Ullrich and Andruchiewicz were significantly faster than Brzeski and led the top of the PitBike Stock. Ullrich and Andruchiewicz fought gripping duels. In the end, Ullrich was able to claim the top and won narrowly but confidently.

The second race had to be stopped early after a heavy impact after the start-finish line. However, both drivers got away with the horror and so the restart could take place. The first run was reflected almost 1: 1. Ullrich had to keep Andruchiewicz in check and be careful not to throw away the victory himself. Brezski had a lot of leisure to stay with the top duo. Wittwer followed at a considerable distance.

At the end of the third run, the first EuropeanPitBikeTrophy champion was Nils Brezski from the Kaktus Racing team. Jonas Wittwer came in second, followed by Cedric Förster.

Grade 6 - GP Open

The championship in the Open would actually have been predetermined if the unbeaten Erste Gras had been at the start in Jüterbog. So it got exciting again. Schmitt had the theoretical chance to catch up with grass. One win and a second place was enough. However, Lang did not want to let him go so easily.

The day's ranking was dominated by the guest starters from the Simson GP. Deisinger dominated the field in front of Lenk and Lang.

In the first race Deisinger was able to distance himself clearly from the rest of the field. Lang gave everything, but on average he had to let Deisinger go with more than a second. Third place was Postler. Lenk retired early in the race.

In the second race, Deisinger took a new lead and won unrivaled ahead of Lang and Postler.
The big arithmetic game began in the championship. Due to the dropping guest starters, Schmitt got 40 points in the end and reduced Gras's lead to 2 points. However, the decisive victory was denied him. This year's champion in the GP Open is called Henning Gras. Heiko Schmitt came in second ahead of Benjamin Lang.

Grade 7 - Beginners

In the beginners' category, Alexander Krawitz was practically in possession of the championship. Arrive and persevere was the motto.

However, Krawitz skilfully and ambitiously went into his last race. With a lead of more than a second over Ilic and almost 3 seconds over Beinlich, he created a good starting position for the race. The first steps in the beginners class took place exactly one year ago in Jüterbog.

In the race itself, Krawitz didn't let anything go and took a very good start-finish victory. Ilic in second place couldn't improve any further and had to keep third-placed Wels in check.

In the championship, Krawitz was the undefeated winner and we are excited to see whether he will be in the rookies class in 2022. Place 2 and 3 was a pure point battle. Wojciechowski's good placement made it really exciting in the fight with Rodens. In the end, both were tied with 43 points in the ranking. However, Rodens was able to achieve the better placement on the HarzRing and thus captured second place. Wojciechowski came in third

Class 8 Endurance & 9 Endurance Split

In the endurance race, the Streetlights team and Simson GP 2 were eagerly awaited. Streetlights once again marked the claim to the championship with a gap of 2 seconds to the rest of the field. But also Ems Coast Tunerz had big plans for the long haul. For the women from ND Design it was about important points for the championship against NEKROX Allstars.

Streetlights had to retire early in the race itself. This cleared the way for Ems Coast Tunerz and she was able to take her victory with almost no resistance. AK Racing and Amp, on the other hand, had to fight a lot more and the driver changes were watched with excitement. Pumba Racing 2 and AKA Racing Team 1 were generally within striking distance, just waiting for a mistake that didn't happen in the end.

In the Endurance Split, Simson GP 2 gave everything, but was far less able to set itself apart from ND Design, who brilliantly defended their second place ahead of GT Racing Team.

In the endurance classification, Pumba Racing 2 won the championship, ahead of AKA Racing and AK Racing and Amp. In class 9, it was ND Design that showed the men properly and in the end brought about a surprising but well-deserved championship title. Second place went to NEKROX Allstars ahead of Learn2slide.

EST Scooter Racing Finals

Race report on the final race of EST 2020 in Jüterbog

European Scooter Trophy: The scooter and pit bike scene was looking forward to the final race in Jüterbog with great excitement. Despite the short season caused by the corona, the tension was extremely high. In the big classes it was about everything and the championships had not yet been decided. And, as in the previous races, the response was enormous. Over 100 drivers registered for the race in Jüterbog. With that, EST has had a record season. The rookies class in particular was bursting at the seams again. And so we are already looking forward to 2021. More than 10 drivers want to get into Supersport and thus pave the way for the next generation of rookies. These will be great fights in 2021. But before that happens, the third race in Jüterbog had to be mastered.

Great finish after a difficult start due to Corona

We congratulate all participants and especially the winners on a great race event, many thanks to Andre and the EST team for the organization!

Update of the start of the EuropeanScooterTrophy 2020 season

Italian racing drivers are also enthusiastic

One of the special moments this weekend was the participation of 4 Italian drivers. The F&F motori team from Italy started with 4 drivers. Just madness. 1750km for a 1-day event. The guys are awesome and were duly welcomed and celebrated in the EST.

The corona concept developed by the Harz-Ring and Wittgenborn was also used again in Jüterbog and so we were all able to carry out our last run together despite the difficult environmental conditions. Jüterbog was the perfect location for the last race. A route length of 1,3km, a huge field of drivers and the existing runway for set-up runs made optimal conditions possible. Even the weather was on the EST side again, so the event could be run in dry conditions.

Here are the results of the individual classes:

Grade 7 - Beginner

We were able to inspire 7 drivers for the beginner class. Here, however, the championship was decided in advance, as Moosmann was the only championship driver.

The starting grid looked like this:

  1. # 12 Jonathan Krahn 1: 23.277
  2. # 290 Kevin Geissler 1: 23.352
  3. # 22 Tobias Moosmann 1: 23.689

Moosmann was able to claim the start and drove Krahn and Münch away. Münch grabbed Krahn early and drove up to two. Krahn crossed the finish line in third place.

The picture from the first race was repeated in the second race. Krawitz and Geissler were able to keep up at the beginning, but then had to admit defeat to Krahn.

Final result K7 beginner

  1. # 50 Tobias Moosmann 50 pts.
  2. # 5 Collin Münch 40 pts.
  3. # 12 Jonathan Krahn 32 pts.

The first master of the newly created beginner class was Tobias Moosmann with 100 points.

 

Class 1 - rookies

With a view to the championship, the most exciting duel between Just and Depta was. Just got faster and faster as the season progressed and put Depta and guest starter Thönnern under real pressure.

  1. # 43 Philipp Thönissen 1: 10.352
  2. # 1 Merlin Depta 1: 10.906
  3. # 42 Bastian Just 1: 12.316

The rookies' first race was a real four-way battle. Thönennis in front. Was able to keep a little distance from Depta. Behind wheel to wheel Just and Johanshon. Triebs really wanted to get involved and grabbed Johanson first and then Just. Just persisted and didn't want Triebs to pull away. Meanwhile, Depta increased the number of strokes and hunted down Thönnern, who could not surrender to the pressure on lap 12. In the end, Depta crossed the finish line ahead of Thönnern, Just, Triebs and Johanshon.

In the second race, Thönissen failed to start. He did not get the performance tamed and was passed on in 4th place. Just benefited from this and moved up to first place. Depta followed him. Quebbemann on three was initially able to keep up, but then had to admit defeat to Thönnern and Triebs. Thönennis grabbed Depta and drove back to second place, with the aim of regaining the top spot. Thönennis crashed and was then unable to keep up with the speed until he was finally eliminated on lap 1 after an accident with Just. For Depta, the second race did not go optimally either. After falling from ninth place, he had to work his way up again. The laughing winner that day was Marcel Triebs. This remained accident-free and drove confidently to the top in the wild change of position. Johanshon was able to successfully finish the second race in second place ahead of the surprising third Schiller.

K2 SuperSport + K4 BigBore & Supramatic

The championship was all about everything. In particular, the duel between D'Alessandro and Schmitt created tension. But even Elli should still be on the list after his great performance in Wittgenborn. For the starting line-up, however, an unusual picture emerged at first. The Italian drivers with their scooters were dominant here. Carsten Schmitt came in fourth, just a thousandth of a second behind Bertini.

  1. # 1111 Stefano Basile 1: 07.781
  2. # 721 Filippo Boceda 1: 08.220
  3. # 28 Michael Bertini 1: 08.388

Basile and Adonor got off to the best start. Basile kept the lead and Adorno moved up from 5th to 2nd. Behind it, Boceda. Schmitt landed in 5th place, but attacked again immediately and wanted to show that he would not give himself up to the Italian drivers without a fight. Schmitt attacked Boceda and was able to move up to 3rd place. Bertini and Boceda switched positions back and forth. In attack mode, D'Alessandro approached who drove up from 9th to 4th and also had the best chances in the direction of Schmitt. However, he wanted too much and had to push the scooter off the track after falling. Schmitt could not break away from Boceda. This regained 3rd place. Schmitt without D'Alessandro behind him was able to score important points for the championship. The finish line for K2 was: Boceda, Schmitt followed by Richter.

The finish line K4 was: Adorno, Basile followed by Bertini.

The second race started with even more aggressiveness. Adorno leads the way, Basile behind and Schmitt ready to attack. Basile was the first to grab Adorno and Schmitt was also able to take second place early on Adorno. Then it got hectic. Bertini suddenly got involved too. For Basile, however, it was over early after a part broke at full speed and fluid leaked and he then fell. Bodeca also fell. When both drivers got up again, Richter fell into the tire wall at the same point. Thank goodness nothing worse had happened. Richter could go on. The race was over for the Italians. The biggest beneficiary of the fall, however, was D'Alessandro, who briefly moved up to second place, but then had to admit defeat to Adorno and Schmitt.

The finish line K2 was: Schmitt, D'Alessandro followed by Hasemann.

The finish line K4 was: Bertini, Adorno followed by Zehe.

Final result K2 SuperSport

  1. # 33 Carsten Schmitt 45 pts.
  2. # 96 Philip Hasemann 29 pts.

K5 PitBike-Pole + K6 GP-Open

The championships in both classes were as good as decided. Brzeski and Jorewitz clearly led. Nevertheless, the two drivers had to arrive first. And Reese showed early on that Brzeski cannot rest.

The starting grid:

  1. # 101 Dennis Jorewitz 1: 09.663
  2. # 122 Joe Schack 1: 10.673
  3. # 469 Nils Brzeski 1: 12.564

The top duo showed their fabulous performance early on. Jorewitz raced away from the field and never let anything burn. An opponent has yet to be found here. Schack, who was slowed down significantly with additional weights, was still significantly faster than Brzeski. Brzeski, Reese and Förster fought great duels, which also repeatedly led to changes of position. In the end, Brzeski was ahead by a nose and asserted himself in third place.

The second race could have been copied for Jorewitz and Schack. Lonely top the two in your classes. However, Schack was taken out of the ranking because he drove without additional weights and therefore did not meet the minimum weight of 155kg according to the regulations. Förster was cashed in by Lang quite early. Reese was behind, got faster and faster and in the end relegated Brzeski to fourth place. As a result, he secured the win of the day.

Bottom line K5 pit bike stick

  1. # 555 Jens Reese 45 pts.
  2. # 469 Nils Brzeski 45 pts.
  3. # 14 Cedric Förster 29 pts.

K3 expert

The duel of the day was called between Lukas and Schröder. Both opponents were separated by only 2 points and so it was time for both of them to attack early in order not to miss any important championship point.

The qualification for the race showed a clear winner. Andreas Lukas. The scooter went so from the front that Pohl could only look with a 1 second gap in second place. The dominance of performance at the top of the Expert class has seldom been so great. Schröder was clearly left behind here.

  1. # 96 Andreas Lukas 1: 05.478
  2. # 169 Yannik Ong 1: 06.357
  3. # 3 Kevin Pohl 1: 06.808

Lukas was also able to win the first race at the start. As in training, the scooter went steeply. Pohl behind couldn't keep up and had to let Ong pass early. But then it should be too much of a good thing for Luke. He fell, was able to continue, but then had to park the scooter in the lane and look. This was an important preliminary decision in the championship. The first race would not have been Schröder's either. He was stuck behind Brüggeshemke for a long time and lost valuable time on the top. Schnell drove to 3rd place in the meantime after Hüser retired due to a fall at good speed. Ong at the top was able to keep Pohl sufficiently at a distance with 5 seconds and achieved a sovereign victory in front of Pohl and Schnelle.

For Schröder it was only a matter of arriving in the second race, then the championship would be his. Logically, Lukas had something against it. And so it was astonishing that both riders were characterized by crashes and did not fight for the lead at all. Ong says: "Thank you" and was able to take his second victory. As in the first race, Pohl was the laughing second and also drove his second podium place home. Third came M. Harder, who couldn't keep up at top speed. However, it was still able to benefit from the failures. So the championship aspirants carried out their title fight in the lower midfield. With 2th place, Lukas just kept his nose ahead of Schröder.

Final result K3 Expert by Scooter-Attack

  1. # 169 Yannik Ong 50 pts.
  2. # 3 Kevin Pohl 40 pts.
  3. # 58 Marc Harder 26 pts.

K8 1,5h endurance race + K9 Race of the Champion

The long-distance race was expanded to include a desired class of drivers at short notice. Many wanted to start again with their solo machines and so the Race of the Champion class for solo drivers was introduced at short notice. With 19 starts it was also very well filled at the Le Mans start. Ong, Lukas and Schmitt secured the top places in the qualification.

The team from Italy led the endurance race. The hot pursuer was the team around Andreas Lukas with M. Schröder as a passenger. Very early on, they attacked the Italians, who initially remained steadfast. Schmitt followed behind, who couldn't quite keep up with the speed. Due to the colorful mix of the field of drivers, battles for position were the order of the day and some of them soon lost track of their positions. Only a fall of Siemer from EMS Coast Tuners put an end to the hustle and bustle for a short time. This hit the barriers violently and barely missed the marshals. After a forced break of 15 minutes, the race could be continued again. Siemer was once again lucky in the misfortune and was able to do without a hospital stay.

The restart was the time of Luke. His team now finally set itself apart from the rest of the field. Things also went better for Schmitt after the restart. Shortly behind in 4th place, he was back in 2nd place. Bähr followed as a solo driver in front of the F + F motori team.

End result K8 long haul

  1. # 96 Andreas Lukas 25 pts.
  2. # 721 F + F motori 20 pts.
  3. # 1 Merlin Depta 16 pts.

End result K9 long haul
