THE METZELER Offroad Park played host to the Trentino GP of the FIM EnduroGP World Championship where Salvini, Holcombe and Larrieu were the undisputed stars
A weekend rich with victories and podium places for the METZELER brand, with the riders Steve Holcombe, Alex Salvini, Loic Larrieu, Emanuele Facchetti and Andrea Verona competing in the fifth round of the Enduro World Championship which took place on the METZELER Offroad Park racetrack in Pietramurata
Pietramurata (Italy) 2 July 2018 - The wonderful permanent racetrack at the METZELER Offroad Park in Pietramurata, just a few kilometres from the northern tip of Lake Garda, played host to the fifth round of the FIM EnduroGP World Championship. The Trentino GP took place over just one day of races, and as usual there was no lack of successes for METZELER and the riders sponsored by the tyre brand.The METZELER riders continue to dominate the FIM EnduroGP World Championship, and in the Trentino GP the most prominent figures were Alex Salvini (Team JET Zanardo), Steve Holcombe (Team Beta Factory Enduro) and Loic Larrieu (Outsiders Yamaha Official Enduro Team). The Bologna-born rider led in the Enduro GP and re-enforced his position as leader in the Premier class. He was the protagonist of an exciting battle which lasted the entire weekend against his ex-team mate Steve Holcombe, fitted with METZELER MCE 6 DAYS EXTREME tyres, who currently holds second place overall. Loic Larrieu completed an all-METZELER podium in the Enduro GP.
It was not, however, a GP to be remembered for Jamie McCanney in the E1 class, as the English rider from the Team Yamaha Outsider had a serious fall during the Enduro Test and was forced to withdraw.
In the E2 class, two riders fitted with METZELER tyres were among the prominent figures in the Trentino GP. Alex Salvini and Loic Larrieu dominated the Premier class, but the real star of the show was the Bologna-born rider. Loic Larrieu, second in the class, won all three legs of cross.
A splendid victory in the E3 class for the METZELER-supported rider Steve Holcombe. The rider for the Beta Factory Enduro Team continued to affirm his role as class leader with a consistent lead over Christophe Nambotin and his compatriot Danny McCanney.
It was also an excellent weekend of races for Andrea Verona and Emanuele Facchetti, with their first World Championship podium, both performing well in the Junior class with METZELER MCE 6 DAYS EXTREME tyres.
The FIM EnduroGP World Championship will now take a long break, to return to the racetrack on 31 August, 1 and 2 September in Edolo for the Italian GP.
