The penultimate round of the TrialGP World Championship will be held this coming weekend in the French town of Auron, in the heart of the Alps. Toni Bou will have the opportunity to be crowned TrialGP World Champion.
The altitude of the Auron ski resort will once again put the
best riders in the trial world
to the test. The French TrialGP is being held this weekend in the small town of the Alps, where the special location of the area where the race will be held, at 1,600 meters above sea level, will measure the strength and performance of riders and motorcycles in the sixth round of the World Championship.
TONI BOU’S OPTIONS
Toni Bou
, solid leader of the championship, unbeaten after winning all five GPs held in 2019, will have before him the first opportunity to win a new world title, the thirteenth in TrialGP and the twenty-sixth of his career in the top competition. The Spaniard is in a privileged position at the top of the championship and is 22 points ahead of his main rival in the standings, Adam Raga. If he wins, he will be World Champion. Finishing ahead of the Spanish rider would mathematically give him the title at stake.
We’re having a very good championship and we’re confident that it will continue this weekend in France as well. We’re going to try to get the bike in good shape in Auron, where the altitude can have a big influence. We will also try to arrive physically recovered, so that we can fight hard. We know we can win the championship, yes, but the first thing we want to do is a good race and that nothing strange happens so that we can go on holiday with peace of mind.
The French TrialGP will start on Saturday with the administrative and technical checks starting at 08:00; The qualifying zone will be played at 15:30 (local time). On Sunday, the race will start at 10:00 a.m. and the podium is scheduled for 4:45 p.m.
