Roland Hülskath of Germany was the driver of the day as the third leg of the World Driving Championship visited Jarlsberg Travbane in Jarlsberg, Norway

.

Hülskath finished no worse than fifth with his four drives on the day, notching one win, one second to go with fourth and fifth place finishes and vault him from seventh to fourth overall.

New Zealand's Peter Ferguson maintains his spot atop the leaderboard with a slim two-point lead over Swedish ace Björn Goop.

The track in Jarlsberg was not kind to Canada's Brad Forward, who slipped to eighth overall with 63 points.

Sunday is a dark day in the competition, with Monday's action taking the drivers to Sørlandets Travpark before concluding at Bjerke Travpark on May 20.

Here are the point totals after three days:

Peter Ferguson - New Zealand - 98
Björn Goop - Sweden - 96
Birger Jørgensen - Denmark - 93
Roland Hülskath - Germany - 89
Jason Bartlett - USA - 74
Eirik Høitomt - Norway - 70
Christophe Martens - Belgium - 66
Brad Forward - Canada - 63
Imre Fazekas - Hungary - 59
Gareth Rattray - Australia - 54
