The first round of the Nations Cup is over and the eight teams that will compete in tomorrow's final are known!
As for the course, there were not too many pitfalls and the damage was limited in most cases. The time allowed, however, proved to be just a little too short for many.
Germany proved to be the strongest country after this round with only two penalty points for exceeding the time. Daniel Deusser was the only one to stay clear with Killer Queen VDM. Andre Thieme and DSP Cakaria had to register one time penalty just like Christian Ahlmann and Clitrexo Z. David Will and C Vier 2 had a time penalty of 9 penalty points.
In second place is Spain, which thanks to an enthusiastic home crowd may go to the final. Their three penalty points were collected by Ismael Garcia Roque with La Costa (1), Eduardo Aznar Alvarez with Legend (1) and Sergio Alvarez Moya with Alamo (1). Manuel Fernandez Saro and Jarlin De Torres finished with 5 penalty points which was later deleted.
The third place was for a strong team Netherlands. Sanne Thijssen made her dream debut with Con Quidam and stayed clear. Maikel van der Vleuten and Beauville Z also left all the fences in the sacks. Both Willem Greve and Carambole and Harrie Smolders and Monaco had one jumping fault, one of which was cancelled.
Furthermore Brazil, Sweden, Ireland, the USA and Belgium also reached the final.
