Summary of Saturday qualifying and race results at Croatian ‘Brod Open ‘Races in Slavonski Brod, showcasing pole-positions for Luka Nervo (Superstock 1000), Karlo Grsic (Superstock 600), Valentin Knapic (Supersport 300) and Danijel Kopric (Sport Production 125).
Nervo and Grsic are also respective Superstock 1000, Superstock 600 Race 1 victors and both set new class lap records.
18-year talented rider from Krizevci, Karl Grsic is additionally alongside holding stock 600, Supersport 300 lap records, the new outright event lap-record carrier.
Josip Jacmenjak headed the Supersport 300 Race 1 field whilst Mislav Perkusic led home the Sport Production 125 fraternity. This means there are the same winners of modern classes at the Brod Open as from the previous weekend at the ‘Prize of Krizevci’.
Second races per category take place today after morning warm-up sessions.
An added note, as previously featured on Road Racing News, former outright meeting lap-record holder Loris Majcan, is a non-starter but is still attending this weekend as a spectator.
