Tomas Slavik was able to take his 4th win at 4X Pro Tour world series in row at Fort William, Scotland. After unlucky race in Germany, where he missed the gate in semi and ended up on 5th place its good to see Slavik powering it to the top spot again with winning quali by over 1 second and all his heats! 

“ After my own mistake in Germany where I ended up on 5th place its good to be standing back on top. Last week I knew I just had a bad luck, but it still mixes with your head. Here in Fort William I felt really strong and fast. Im absolutely in love with the new changes of the track and really was having fun every meter of the track. Really challenging track with many options for passing and making up a difference in between the riders. In qualification I set up the fastest time with over 1 second gap to 2nd which was a great. Even when it was raining at the beginning crowd sticked to the track and made amazing atmosphere. I was happy with my performance and I was able to take my 4th win here. Racing was hard and unpredictable as always in Fort William and thats what is making the win always so valuable. Final battle for the overall 4X Pro Tour title will be on my home soil at JBC 4X Revelations on 15.7.2017! Thank you to the czech fans who are supporting us here in Fort William over the years and made us feel like home :) Thank you Scotland you were amazing!”
