Markus Hellquist wins at Swedish Indoor Cup Rd1
The opening round of the Swedish Indoor Cup was hosted by the Wäxjö MS club on a quite technical track. The race format was three rounds of qualifiers with the best round to count followed by triple A-mains. Right from the start Markus Hellquist showed a very strong pace and he would take the TQ a few seconds ahead of teammate Erik Ström with Fabian Vernersson completing the top 3 only two tenth of a second short of Erik. In the finals Markus made a clean sweep to take the win while Erik was able to defend his runner-up spot. Behind the two Daniel Carlsson would end the day on the three spot from Mikael Fransson and Andreas Johansson in fourth and fifth.
