After rounds at Prize of Krizevci, Prize of Zelina and the two-day long Prize of Slavonia (natural Automotodrom Glavica in Pozega – held last month – 12th-13th September, coincided with Oberlausitzer Dreieck in Germany and Branna Kolstejn Classic Races in the Czech Republic), the Croatian road racing season is over.
New Croatian road-race Champions crowned in Pozega included Luka Nervo (Superstock 1000). Goran Ciko (Superstock 1000 ‘Big Boys’) Karlo Grsic (Superstock 600), Matej Mikec (Supersport 300) and Vilim Babic (Sport Production 125).
Croatian TT pioneer, prospective Southern 100 newcomer next year (as reported this week on Road Racing News), Loris Majcan (Superstock 1000 winner, Superstock 600 contest runner-up from August’s Prize of Zelina meeting) was the main focused rider on the Prize of Slavonia event poster but ultimately did not participate.
