Stage 2 of the ORLEN Driving Tour ended with a victory of Bartłomiej Kwiatek. In the CAVALIADA Future, Ignacy Luboński and Anna Korus triumphed. In the CAVALIADA Open Tour final, the best riders were Łukasz Bogusz and Julia Koszuta.

Eight teams took part in the second stage of ORLEN Driving Tour. The competitors did not avoid mistakes today. However, it was not clear until the very end who the final winner would be. Ultimately, the best time belonged to Bartłomiej Kwiatek with his groom Katarzyna Wieczorek, driving HEKTOR and BOLO.

Above all, the funniest moment of this whole competition was the fact that we knew from the very beginning that the most difficult obstacles of the whole parkour were the 1st and the 12th, that is the first and the last one.

Weronika and I both said: watch out for 1 and 12. We enter the second turn, I knock down the first obstacle, Weronika rides with a very good time and knocks down the 12. We simply made mistakes at those obstacles which were the most difficult in solidarity with the other competitors,” says Bartłomiej Kwiatek.

And he adds – We are really happy with the audience, the horses and our team. You can see that it is going in the right direction. It’s such an evenly matched field that the differences are about seconds. The cool thing about this year’s CAVALIADA is that we don’t really know the winner until the end. Each of the drivers who enter the second round is a potential winner.

His sister Weronika followed in close second, and third belonged to Aleksander Fularczyk.
