Harri Kullas suffered a serious-looking crash during the opening race of an Estonian championship round at Lange, less than a month before the Motocross of Nations in France.

Kullas won the start but made a mistake on a large jump and landed in a soft depression. Although he avoided a fracture, medics had to put his hip back into position.

The length of his recovery remains unknown. Kullas was expected to be an important member of Estoniaโ€™s team at the upcoming international event. Jรถrgen-Matthias Talviku and Sebastian Leok are also part of the Estonian lineup.

In the MX Open races, Latviaโ€™s Markuss Kokins won both heats. Sebastian Leok was second on his larger motorcycle, followed by Erki Kahro, Kaarel Tilk and Gert Krestinov. Latviaโ€™s Jekabs Kubulins won MX2, while Lucas Leok took both MX125 races.
