For many the Mika Ahola “Brave One” Trophy is fast becoming a must-win title in 2012. Many riders have already expressed their desire to become the first rider to win the title in Mika’s honour.
Double World champion Antoine MEO (F – KTM) confessed, “For me, winning this title is one of my main goals. Mika was a real friend and I really respected him when we raced together.”
As the Maxxis FIM Enduro World Championship passes the halfway point in the season, the standings at the top of the Husqvarna Xtreme Test Award remain tightly contested.
With the Grand Prix Polisport of Portugal over, it’s time to talk about the highlights of the paddock…
Antoine MEO, Pierre-Alexandre RENET and Christophe NAMBOTIN enjoyed a winning result on day two at the Maxxis Enduro World Championship GP Polisport of Portugal.
Spain’s Laia SANZ (Gas Gas) defeated France’s Ludivine PUY (Gas Gas) to win the Women’s Cup while France’s Mathias BELLINO (Husaberg) continued his dominating run in Enduro Junior to claim his sixth victory of 2012.
Rodrig THAIN, Johnny AUBERT and Christophe NAMBOTIN secure victory on day one at round four of the Maxxis Enduro World Championship in Torres Vedras, Portugal. Mathias BELLINO claims a winning result in Enduro Junior while defending champion Ludivine PUY tops the Women’s Cup.
Decidedly this year, the KTM Super Test success admirably well to the Frenchies. After Rodrig THAIN (F – HM Honda) in Chile, Marc BOURGEOIS (F – Yam) in Basque Country it is Fabien PLANET (F – Sherco) who won it in Torres Vedras.
