LUCAS OIL PRO MOTOCROSS CHAMPIONSHIP
VOL. 51 ISSUE 21 MAY 28, 2014 P55
class and two AMA 250 Super-
cross titles, his career has been
up and down, some of which had
to do with injuries. He returned to
Europe the last couple of years in
the 450 class and, despite a few
stellar rides, never really returned
to that championship-winning
Pourcel form. Would we see it
again at Glen Helen again? Yes
and no.
Pourcel did look very fast and
he had that super smooth Pour-
cel form at Glen Helen but didn't
get the win like many thought
he would. He managed decent
starts and ran well inside the top
10 all day. Riding a Valli Motors-
ports Yamaha YZ250F with fac-
tory support (he was even pitting
out of the Yamaha hauler that was
put back into action) and under
the guidance of former factory
Honda team manager Erik Ke-
hoe, Pourcel went 7-5 for fifth
overall.
After the race, Kehoe said that
the team and Pourcel were very
pleased with his performance
and came away achieving their
goal of a top-10 finish at the
opener. CN
