Bou Wins in Andorra
T
he Repsol Honda HRC duo of Toni Bou and
Gabriel Marcelli dominated the FIM TrialGP of
Andorra, June 13-14, taking the first- and second-
place positions on their Montesa machines both
Saturday and Sunday.
Beta's Jaime Busto edged out his teammate
Matteo Grattarola for third on Saturday, with
Sherco's Jack Peace rounding out the top five.
On Sunday, Peace got on the podium, while
Honda rider Miquel Gelabert took fourth and Grat
-
tarola fifth.
"It's been a perfect weekend, even better than
we could have expected," Bou said after Sunday's
win. "I had a great feeling on the bike, and today
we were able to cap it off with a one-point lap and
a clean one, without any mistakes. I'm very happy,
and I want to thank the team for their hard work,
which has been very important for me. We've
started the season in an incredible way."
"Both yesterday and today I felt good from the
start of the event; although I made a few mis
-
takes, we were able to react and maintain a high
level," Marcelli said. "I finished second in both
laps and second overall for the day, so the result
is almost unbeatable."
After two rounds, Bou leads the championship
over Marcelli, 160-124. Busto is third with 110
points.
