Race results: WMX RD2 – Teutschenthal – Guillen perfect

Daniela Guillen delivered a commanding performance at the second round of the Women’s Motocross World Championship in Teutschenthal, securing a flawless 1-1 finish across both races. She capitalised on strong starts, taking the holeshot in each race and maintaining her lead despite pressure from top contenders such as Kiara Fontanesi and Nancy van de Ven. Guillen’s ability to fend off challenges and control the pace underlined her growing dominance early in the season. The opening race featured a tense battle as Guillen overtook Fontanesi and Van Drunen, who had a slower start, to claim the lead. The contest intensified when Van Drunen crashed while running alongside Guillen, allowing the Spaniard to maintain her advantage and take the win. Fontanesi finished closely behind in second, with Courtney Duncan and Van Drunen completing the top five, highlighting a competitive field despite some early setbacks. In the second race, Guillen once again demonstrated her skill and composure by leading from the outset and holding off her rivals to complete a perfect weekend. Van Drunen faced difficulties on the opening lap, dropping to the back of the pack, which could prove challenging given the short championship calendar. Fontanesi secured second place, while Van der Vlist and Amandine Verstappen rounded out the podium positions, with Lynn Valk and Lucy Barker also making strong showings. A notable moment came as Larissa Papenmeier celebrated her 100th Grand Prix in front of an enthusiastic home crowd, finishing seventh and receiving a warm ovation. This milestone added an emotional highlight to the event, reflecting her enduring presence in the sport. With Guillen’s impressive start, the championship standings now see her firmly in control, setting the tone for a competitive season ahead.
