Britain ' s Billy Bolt won in the mud on Sunday at Extreme XL Lagares with Red Bull KTM Factory Racing ' s Manuel Lettenbichler and veteran Graham Jarvis also impressing at round one of the 2021 FIM Hard Enduro World Championship .
Here is all you need to know :
In a shortened schedule due to last-minute COVID-19 restrictions , Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing ' s Bolt picked up where he left off following Saturday ' s qualifying to win Sunday ' s Endurocross with Lettenbichler second and Bolt ' s teammate Jarvis back in third .
Following heavy overnight rain , it was mutually agreed by the event organiser and the FIM that 2021 championship points would not be awarded at this first round but that racing would continue .
Fast out of the gate in race one , Bolt charged his way to victory which he convincingly backed up in race two with another winning ride before an early crash in race three eventually saw him finish second .
