PRESS RELEASE GGN 2.0 2024
GOTLAND GRAND NATIONAL 2.0 HIGHLY INTERESTING FOR THE STARS!**
With prize money of 350,000 SEK, GGN 2.0 features a very strong lineup in both the men’s and women’s categories.
– The latest star to enter is Max Ahlin, who won the Junior World Championship 2024 and also won the Six Days with Sweden for juniors.
– Norwegian Kevin Horgmo has impressive credentials, including a 3rd place finish in the Junior World Championship 125cc, two EMX250 round wins, and a 4th place overall in the MX2 World Championship. This year, Kevin finished 8th overall in the World Championship. In 2019, he participated in Gotland but was unable to finish.
– One of the biggest favorites is undoubtedly Albin Elowson, who has won GGN for the last two years and aims to win the first race on the new GGN 2.0 track.
– Another big star, Taddy Blazusiak, who participated in 2018 (WESS), returns this year but on a strong Varg (EL).
– Isak Gifting is another interesting name to follow in this year’s GGN.
– On the women’s side, we have several participants who will be among the top contenders.
– Linnéa Åkesson, who won the last GGN at Tofta, is certainly one of the top favorites to win the GGN 2.0 premiere in Hejdeby.
– Hanna Berzelius is always in the top ranks and will be again this year. Hanna has previously won GGN.
– It’s third time’s the charm for German Larissa Papenmeier, now with an entirely new track for everyone.
– Matilda Huss and Tyra Bäckström are always ones to watch.
