teammate, Gabriel Marcelli, who
stole the spotlight on Sunday.
Marcelli made history by securing
his career-first World Champion-
ship win, finishing with just 23
points on the day to Bou's 34.
"I'm really happy," Marcelli
said. "I'm on cloud nine. Today
went very well, right from the
first section. I narrowly missed
out on victory in the first race,
and in the second, I rode even
better. I made a lot of mistakes
yesterday, and I knew I could do
better today.
"I've been in the top class for a
few seasons now, taking a step
forward each year, getting closer
to achieving this objective,"
Marcelli said. "For one reason
or another, it had always eluded
me. I'd come close to winning
but never quite achieved it, and
doing it here in the United States
is very special."
