Toni Bou makes Andorra X-Trial debut with a grand victory to celebrate a 13th world title

Press release available only in original language. 

The X-Trial event in #andorra has brought the 2019 FIM X-Trial World Championship to a close. #tonibou, the Repsol Honda Team rider, with the championship already mathematically sealed, was able to savour the thirteenth title in front of the home Andorran spectators.

The Repsol rider, making his debut in an #andorra X-Trial, arrived on the back of four 2019 championship victories with the title already bagged after winning the Marseille trial, a month and a half ago. Bou was able to ride without pressure and command the trial to claim a fifth win of the season. Bou cleaned the first two rounds and later picked up just a single point, compared to the 11 of rival #adamraga, in the final.

This marks a career 75th podium place for #tonibou and victory number 62 for the multi-time Spanish champion.

The X-Trial World Championship had returned to #andorra after a sixteen-year absence. #tonibou hadn’t yet taken part in the championship back then, unlike team-mate Takahisa Fujinami. In the most recent edition of the indoor event in #andorra, disputed in the Palau de Gel de Canillo, the Japanese Repsol Honda Team rider had finished in fifth position.

The trial was the 139th participation for Takahisa Fujinami in an X-Trial World Championship event – an outright record in this competition. The Japanese rider accomplished his mission of qualifying for the second phase and went on to post an upbeat fifth overall position.
