Yaniv Sivan successful at Israeli League Rd7
Round 7 of the Israeli League off-road series was recently held at the Negev Speed track. After four rounds of qualifying Ofir Avitan took the TQ honours and he also jumped into the lead at the start of the main final, immediately opening a gap on the field while Aviv Maymon, coming from the 2 spot on the grid, had to retire early with electrical issues. Meanwhile Yaniv Sivan, who had started from 3rd on the grid, was promoted into 2nd. About 30 minutes into the race, two major battles took place with Or Balulu and Ido Carmon fighting for the 3rd place while Yaniv Sivan and Ofir Avitan made it out for the lead. Ultimately Yaniv was able to close the gap to Ofir in the closing stages, eventually passing him on the final lap to take the win from Ofir in second and Or in third.
