A race full of surprises
Of course, not all of the race was calm for Rueda. The event was marked by several spectacular falls and many retirements. In total, 11 riders did not cross the finish line, either due to falls or mechanical problems. One of the highlights was the collision between Joel Kelso and Ángel Piqueras, which nearly cost the latter dearly. Fortunately, Piqueras managed to continue after a stunning fall, finishing in 12th position and saving 4 valuable points for the championship.
We can say that the Thai track was a real battlefield for the riders, but Rueda, as a true leader, managed to stay firm without letting himself be disturbed by the accidents.
