Mads secures Euro podium
9:10am Monday 25th August 2008 in
ROBINS’ Danish ace Mads Korneliussen skidded to a third place finish in the yesterday’s re-staged European Championship final in Slovenia, writes GARETH MOORHOUSE.
Home favourite Matej Z’agar was crowned champion after collecting 14 points from five rides, but with six riders tied for second, a four-heat race-off was needed to determine the other podium places.
Former Swindon star Sebastian Ulamek came out on top in the race-off, as Korneliussen was forced to settle for second place and third overall.
Earlier, Korneliussen won just one of his five heats on his way to a 10-point meeting haul.
TODAY’S FIXTURES Sky Sports Elite League: Coventry v Ipswich 4.30, Poole v Peterborough 6pm, Wolverhampton v Belle Vue 7.30.
