INTERVIEW 2015 WORLD OFF-ROAD CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES CHAMPION ROBBY BELL P150 2015, especially in the beginning of the year, I wanted to come out and make a statement. I started the year on fire and attacked. Taft, I just had a solid victory. Primm, I had a good victory. Canyon I had a good victory. It was pretty much just stringing them together and un- fortunately Gary got hurt. From there, around the midpoint of the year before I had a pretty bad injury, I had already opened up a pretty big points lead. So honestly, just the way I came into the series so focused on making a good start is what won the championship for me, because I was able to through the last three or four rounds, not have to take any risks and ride a little bit more within myself because I had opened up a pretty good points cushion. Talk about your midseason injury at Glen Helen (Robby crashed while racing a local motocross race TO COME BACK FROM AN INJURY THAT WAS SO EMOTIONALLY CHALLENGING AND PERFORM TO THE LEVEL I WANTED TO WAS A HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT IN ITSELF. Only two weeks after shattering his face at a local motocross event, Bell had to face the Washington double header, where he managed to pull off two top-10 finishes.
