After ten enthralling laps of the much lauded Frohburg course, just 0.685 separated Grams and new Wepol Racing/Penz 13 BMW team member Todd, as multi times IRRC Supersport champion Marek Cerveny finalised the rostrum finishers.

Others to impress included Ulster GP Ultra Lightweight victor Shaun Anderson, leading the Suzuki challenge in finishing an excellent sixth.

Reflecting on the prior Supersport race, it was Team Schleizer Dreieck’s Thomas Walther who took the spoils, emerging victorious by nigh on 1.4 seconds in front of tenacious main challenger, MV Agusta mounted Manou Antweiler.

Behind Antweiler Performance Racing Achterhoek’s Christian Schmitz battled his way to third, holding off the attentions of rapidly improving Mountain Course exponent Julian Trummer.

Whilst another high calibre TT Races competitor Stefano Bonetti, continued the factory SC Project Paton teams momentous 2018 International roads tenure, with a commanding opening Super Twins race triumph.

After long term main pursuer NK Motors Racing’s Laurent Hoffmann dropped out of contention on the ninth and penultimate lap, this left the ever cheerful, well respected Bonetti with an advantage of over 40 seconds, which he maintained to the completion of the tenth and final lap.

Joining Bonetti on the rostrum were Nico Kehrer and leading Czech roads twins competitor, Petr Najman.
