Bou Sweeps German TrialGP
T
eam Repsol Honda's Toni
Bou got back to his winning
ways at the TrialGP of Germany,
July 6-7. After suffering a day
loss at the previous round, Bou,
on the Montesa Cota 4RT, won
both days in Germany.
On Saturday, Bou was un
-
touchable, dropping 12 points
over the two loops. That was
well clear of GasGas Factory
rider Jamie Busto of Spain, who
dropped 19 points. The next-
closest rider was Spain's Jorge
Casales of the TRRS Factory
Team, but he was another 21
points back.
Bou's teammate Gabriel
Marcelli was fourth and Beta's
Matteo Grattarola was fifth.
Bou's winning gap was even
larger on Sunday. He carded a
winning 14-point score followed
by Busto with 25. Another nine
points back was Marcelli, fol
-
lowed by Grattarola and Casales.
"I am very happy with the
win, and with our performance
throughout the weekend," Bou
said on Sunday. "It has been
almost perfect. During the two
laps, we were very consistent
and made few mistakes. The
points we achieved are very
important for the champion
-
ship, where I have an important
cushion of points that gives me
peace of mind."
"I had a great flow today
but just made a few too many
mistakes on my second lap,"
Busto said on Sunday. "Day one
was great. I was happy to finish
second, and all day, I was super
pleased with the feeling on the
bike. I'm especially proud of my
second lap, where I only made
one mistake on one section."
After four rounds, Bou leads
the championship with 157
points, followed by Marcelli with
118 and Busto with 112.
