Sweet!
Roland Perk ends Season #45 as #1 on the world ranking. Going into S45 my goal was mainly focused to be a consistent Division 1 contender and I couldn't have imagined Perk finishing #1.
With 17 Top 9, 7 Top 3 Finishes (2 times #3 in the Classics) and 3 wins (2 Germany Tour Stages) this was a great season. We had a lot of luck to get into Germany Tour and winning 2 stages there set us up to go for the #1 spot. At the end of the season things got close, with an injury of one of Perks teammates during a BA race the TS got ruined, another bit of bad luck during the last 2 stages didn't create the gap I was hoping for and Aleksander Hetland had to finish top 8 to claim the #1 spot in the last race of the year. He finished #16 and because no points are awarded during the World Championship, nobody can pass Perk anymore.
Really happy to finish the season like this and I'm actually hoping to compete next year again, since I prefer to race Perk all season and compete in as many races as possible. Special thanks to Delion who helped me out with some hard choices and shared the sweat!
