Day 1: Spain
The chase for the 2002 world titles started under very wet conditions at Valverde del Camino, Spain.
The season in the 400cc fourstroke class started with Stefan Merriman wrestling his Husky through the mud to be second behind Juha Salminen with the Spanish rider, Miki Arpa on his VOR in third place.
It\'s been raining for four days straight, something very uncommon in the southern parts of Spain.
