Red Bull KTM factory rider Taddy Blazusiak delivered a top performance in round three of the FIM SuperEnduro Championship, held in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, on Saturday.

The reigning champion picked up the Superpole and a 1-3-1 result in the three finals and consolidates his championship points lead.

The Polish factory rider was the big winner with David Knight finishing second overall and Alfredo Gomez in third.

Blazusiak delivered a stunning ride in the Superpole and the opening Prestige class final when he got away badly and crashed twice, but still crossed the line three seconds ahead of Knight.

Knight was consistently strong for Sherco with a trio of seconds, while Gomez won the second final of the evening aboard his Husqvarna and also carded a pair of fourths.

The next round will be staged in Mexico on next Saturday, 25 January.
