Jesse Mustonen of Finland finished third at both Hertingen in Germany on Saturday and the Masters of Grasstrack at Eenrum in the Netherlands on Sunday. Hertingen is a demanding 510-metre grass oval.

Two podiums back to back after a two-year gap is frankly inhuman. Grasstrack surfaces move like a living thing, so if your instincts are dull you simply don't get to the front. Going wheel to wheel with Wajtknecht on a 510-metre oval says it all. From where I sit, that's pure skill.

How is grasstrack different from speedway, exactly?

A 510-metre grass oval is shorter than people picture.

Two-year break, then third on both days. That's almost too good.

Going toe to toe with Wajtknecht tells you it's real pace.
