Enduro ace Walkner takes first World Championship podium place
There it is, the first World Championship podium! Enduro rider Michael Walkner showed his mettle in Serbia and secured a podium finish. The Krispler defied the challenging conditions.
Enduro rider Michael Walkner was very disappointed after missing the finish at the Erzbergrodeo. He therefore decided to prepare even harder for the next race - with success! The Krispler took his long-awaited first podium place at the world championship race in Zlatibor (Ser). "This third place gives me a lot of motivation and self-confidence," said the 26-year-old jubilantly.
The race did not start as planned. After mediocre results in the prologue, he started seven minutes behind the first-placed rider. But on the first off-road day, a hundred kilometers through the Serbian wilderness, he showed up. "The conditions were very challenging due to the extreme heat," said the GASGAS rider, who did not let the first podium slip from his grasp thanks to further consistent daily results.
