Australian 3rd as Rotax Euro Finale Cancelled

UAE-based Australian Lachlan Robinson has placed third in the 2020 Rotax MAX Euro Trophy.

Robinson was sitting third in the Senior MAX points after the third round at Adria recently. However, with the fourth and final round now cancelled (see below), he has now been confirmed as third in the series.

The effort earns Robinson his fourth start in a Rotax MAX Challenge Grand Final, which for this year will be held at Portimao in January 2021.
