The team arrived with the E1 and E3 world titles already in the bag thanks to superb riding by Antoine Meo and Christophe Nambotin who rose to the occasion to deliver two more exciting round victories on Saturday and Sunday in front of their loyal supporters.
The only senior title left to decide was in the E2 category but with the leading KTM rider Cristobal Guerrero of Spain not fully recovered from a dislocated shoulder in the International Six Days Enduro in Germany last month, the team‰Ûªs chances were narrowed.
Both Guerrero and his teammate Johnny Aubert put in an inspired joint effort to prevent the leader Pierre-Alexandre Renet from taking the title.
The gap between Guerrero and Renet was narrowed to 15 points after Saturday‰Ûªs round but even though Aubert took the win on Sunday, Renet finished third to Guerrero‰Ûªs fourth to secure the victory.
To the excitement of the many French fans, Nambotin and Meo engaged in a personal competition on Sunday. Aubert also had a great last round and was extremely fast on Sunday.
‰ÛÏThis has been a great year for us,‰Û
