• The first Trial World Championship title came to him, as ‘the Magician’ of football Helenio Herrera would have said, “without getting off the bus”, and between the GP of the Czech Republic and the Great Britain. The cancellation of the last event scheduled for 2007, the Belgian Grand Prix, mathematically gave the title to Bou, who had a lead of more than forty points before contesting the race at Hawkstone Park.
