Finland out of 2013 ISDE

Enduro21 has learned that Finland have withdrawn their World Trophy team from this year’s International Six Days Enduro, being held in Sardinia.

Following Juha Salminen’s decision to not race, injury has struck the Finnish squad with Aleski Jukola injuring himself last week as well as Matti Seistola having been diagnosed with a broken bone in his wrist following the EWC GP of France.

With the event now just weeks away the Finnish motorcycle federation have taken the decision not to send a World Trophy Team. Also, because of an injury to Sanna Kärkkäinen Finland have also withdrawn from the Women’s World Trophy team competition.

Finland will send a revised World Junior Trophy team.

Finland, who won the ISDE in Finland in 2011, will be missed in Sardinia.
