Kevin Wolbert is a busy man this weekend after his excellent displays for the Border Roofing Monarchs on Thursday and Friday.

He jetted out from Manchester Airport early on Saturday morning so that he could get to Teterow in Germany for the Auerhahn Trophy. It was a star studded event in front of a crowd of 7500 and Kevin finished 5th in the final. The meeting was won by Sweden's Antonio Lindback ahead of Poland's Sebastian Ulamek with Swede, Peter Ljung in third.

Kevin then has another International event at Gustrow on Sunday evening. With an eight o'clock start, it will be midnight before Kevin gets away on his five hour journey from the north of Germany to Abensberg just north of Munich in the south of Germany for his Grand Prix qualifier. That one starts at 2 so there won't be much time for sleep for Kevin.

At Abensberg he will be joined by Sam Masters as they both chase a top seven place to qualify for the Grand Prix race off. The field looks very open so qualification is a strong possibility for both.
