Loris Gubian rejoins the top international competition with the GasGas Trial Factory Team to lead the exciting electric project of the Salt factory in the TrialE World Championship.
The Frenchman will ride the reigning TrialE World Champion to try to defend the crown won last year in Lourdes by Marc Colomer. A TrialE Cup whose calendar will have two events this year: the French GP and the Belgian GP, which will be held in July.
The five-time French Trial champion with GasGas will also compete in some rounds of the Spanish Electric Trial Championship to adapt to the GasGas TXE.
In addition, Gubian will join GasGas’ R+D team to develop the great pioneer of electric trial, the TXE, the only mass-produced electric motorcycle with a mechanical clutch and six-speed gearbox.
For Gubian, who will also fight for the world title in Trial2 with the TXT, “the time had come to take a new turn” in his sporting career. Gubian would like to “thank GasGas-Torrot for the opportunity and the confidence to return to the Trial World Championship”.
