Superb duel between the two current Cadors of the Endurogp AVEC a victory on Saturday for Josep Garcia who is ahead of Zach Pichon and Andrea Verona. Léo Le Quéré 3rd in E3. The French juniors Giraudon and Joyon ensure victories and podiums, just like Dagna victorious in Youth.
-In the “garden” of Josep Garcia (E-KTM) in Catalonia and in front of an audience all won over to his cause, the defending EGP world champion won Friday evening during the Superret in front of Zach Pichon (TM Factory) and Andrea Verona (I-Gasgas). Like a rehearsal of the day on Saturday.
-A long day of enduro with three 55 km rounds and three specials per turn awaited the pilots on this first day of the GP in Spain. In particular a very long tortuous enduro test and very tight of almost 11 minutes which was the justice of the peace of the day. A special won each time by Josep Garcia who signed 8 scratches in all in 9 possible! In the end, he is ahead of Zach Pichon by 49 seconds. A TM pilot who did not sign any scratch but was able to remain regular all day despite some small errors. Andrea Verona finished 3rd at 1mn06 from Garcia.
