The first round of the Belgian enduro championship was played this Sunday in Hautrage in Hainaut. About 270 drivers were initially technical and challenging ordeal that left traces in the forest! Jean-François Goblet (Husqvarna) started the season well as it required Hautrage ahead of Cedric Melotte (Yamaha) and Kevin Gauniaux (Sherco). The defending champion, Cedric Cremer (KTM) finished the podium.
52 km liaison and 2 special lap were planned by competitors enduro Hautrage. For Inters , the race director had added 6 special plus 3 laps and 11 are special that play a role in the final result . In addition to the usual special composed of technical sections of crossings and very fast sections favoring the big guns, a second special drawn in an old quarry and heavy clay made its debut this year. A special super , unfortunately , quickly became monotrack and turned into a real nightmare for all drivers , including Inters . On the agenda: the rain of the past few days.
If Cedric Cremer won the first stage, the surprise of the day came early Thierry Klutz, back after a two-year absence, who was ranked in 3rd position at the end of the second lap before breaking his clutch. Cedric Melotte also had a very angry start in his second round. A stuck in his rut ​​(long and deep) driver, forced to change course and the Yamaha is buried… He loses 1 minute and 10 seconds in the Goblet adventure that took the lead. Vanderheyden and Vanhoenacker also lose feathers at the same time in the same place. Sherco boys Gauniaux and Vukcevic, very regularly found in 2 and 4.
Melotte pulled out all the stops
Revenge, Cedric Melotte then leaves the big race and wins including all of SP1 to finally clinch second place behind Jean – François Goblet, who has gained the advantage early in the day. “A big congratulations to the organizing club,” launched the official Husqvarna arrival. ” Hautrage becomes a reference. They have many innovative ones and have made the changes in SP2 more difficult to manage. As for me, I gave the best of myself, I rode well. I knew to be consistent while scratching when necessary. I start the best ways to spend this season with Husqvarna “
Gauniaux retained 3rd place despite all the good Cremer in SP2 (KTM pilot takes seven seconds for example to Kevin in the last special of the day), but was punished by the fast SP1 against the lack of power of his little 250 4T.
Vukcevic also great battle between the French and Yabnnick Bossi to award the 5th place which ultimately went in favor of the Belgian. “My first enduro in Belgium, a real find! Bossi commented late in the day. " I will do that . I had a lot of fun and I like the atmosphere in Belgium, more family while remaining serious… A big thank you to Dany Crosset for lending his GAS GAS 300” Also note: the 9th position Minique, the entry into the top – 10 Grandjean for his first appearance in the premier class just ahead of another young Quentin Monfort.
In the hope , Naughty Anthony puts his front Husqvarna TM Gregory Hussin and KTM Steve Robert and Peter Schepens won the National ranking before returning Matt Coombs , Sebastien and Nicolas Ancelin Jadouille .
In Men, Fred Fiorentiono shows the fastest when it is Dany Crosset who lays down the law in the new category of experts before his GasGas Sherco Bruno Monfort .
After discussion, it will take place on March 23 at Vellereilles – lez – Brayeux (Estinnes, in the province of Hainaut) for Enduro Good Hope
