Hsu and LeFrancois crowned AX UK champions in London!
The final battle for points in the Arenacross United Kingdom championship took place on Saturday evening in the beautiful SSE Arena – Wembley in London. In the Pro Lites class, Brian Hsu has dominated the field all season and the Pro 450 boys have mainly been led by LeFrancois and Ramette so far.
In the first Main Event of the Pro Lites class, it was once again Brian Hsu who took the victory. The German Hungarian Taiwanese managed to keep Cedric Soubeyras and Julien Lebeau behind him with a lead of more than two seconds. In the second main event, the former Junior World Champion 85cc and 125cc finished “only” fourth, a result that was enough to secure the title. In this main event, Cedric Soubeyras wins ahead of Julien Lebeau and Nico Dercourt. Cedric Soubeyras logically also takes the overall victory in the Pro Lites class.
