Job Heezen has had an almost perfect season so far. The Dutchman leads the championship and wants to make it three finals in a row. But Santa Pod was Lorenz Stäuble’s track. Can he do it again at Alastaro?

Hans Olav Olstad did not have his best weekend at Santa Pod and will certainly do everything he can to score and stay in the championship race. Team-mates Svein Olav Rolfstad and Jan Studa Hegre will try to improve on their performances at Santa Pod, where fellow Norwegian Trond Hoiberget showed good form and advanced to the semi-finals. Five finnish riders enter Super Twin at Alastaro, whereof three have not been in championship competition previously this season; Petri Kalttonen, Petri Mattsson and Jaska Salakari (who doubles in Top Fuel Bike as well!)
