Does anybody know if any other brothers ever represented their country together in this competition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anybody know if any other brothers ever represented their country together in this competition? Not aware of any other brothers in the final. Ila and Pepe Teromaa represented Finland in the 1975 World Pairs Semi-final but didn't qualify for the Final. There's possibly some lesser countries represented by brothers in World Pairs preliminary qualifying rounds. Adi Funk seems to have ridden for Austria in a preliminary round alongside a Robert Funk who may be his brother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before anyone says it, we know about brothers-in-law (Niemi/Koponen and Loram/Louis)... Edited March 8, 2022 by chunky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
