IIn a sold out Parc des Expositions the stars of the SuperEnduro championship came together to ride their last race of the season. Taddy Blazusiak, the Stefan Everts of the indoor Enduro scene, was able to show his 4e win a world title in a row. From the first round it was clear that the Pole was not going to take it easy. He took the lead as quickly as possible and dominated the first heat. In the second series the cards were shuffled. The results of the previous series are reversed and in that order they can drive to the starting gate and choose their place. This caused a surprise. Spaniard Daniel Gibert won the second series. KTM pilot Blazusiak finished second but took enough points to ensure his 4the world title. In the third series it was again the super strong Pole who took over the lead. But a mistake on the stone section cost him 2 places. The final series was won by David Knight ahead of Walker and Blazusiak.

Next year, the SuperEnduro World Championship plans to grow even more, and turn it into a proper world championship. There are 7 competitions on the program for next year, two of which will be overseas.
