I’ve followed Henri Ahlbom from the start of his career. I might have missed one or two practise sessions from the very start, but I was there in Hallstavik in the spring of whatevertheyearwas to see him ride and struggle with equipment (which I thought at the time was plain stupid).

Winning a meeting must feel nice, I feel safe to say he’s not won anything since he was 16. Good for him!!!

What ever happened in the final!?

To put it simple - He stayed on his bike

I thought he was playing it safe in his first two rides, as he only needed to finish 5th to win. His fall in his third ride when leading was silly then to get caught out on the 2 minute rule in his fourth! His face said it all on the rostrum. 

Anyway well done to Martin Haarahiltunen, after an unbeaten performance on Sunday.

I've only just read that Weber was beaten to the world title. I really can't believe my eyes and feel absolutely gutted for him.

Congratulations to Martin Haaruhiltunen, here's hoping we get a full calendar with riders of all nationalities next year.
