Mathis Valin storms to world title aboard mc 125

GASGAS REMAIN COMMITTED TO SUPPORTING THE NEXT GENERATION OF RIDERS.

GASGAS was well represented at the FIM Junior #motocross World Championship earlier today. The annual event, which was run in #Romania, features the best youth riders from across the world. The #gasgas riders in attendance performed well across the 65cc, 85cc and 125cc categories.

• Mathis Valin makes statement by winning 125cc world title.
• Francesco Assini places MC 65 onto overall podium in third.
• GASGAS stars take advantage of support from manufacturer. 

The #gasgas riders were able to take advantage of support from the manufacturer – a support crew was in attendance with a special area in the paddock. Such assistance proved to be invaluable, especially for those riders who travelled from outside of Europe. #gasgas remains committed to nurturing the next generation. Mathis Valin was a revelation aboard his MC 125 – he was simply incredible in the first stint and won by fifteen seconds. The best lap time that he posted in that race was a second and a half quicker than anyone else! Incredible. Valin backed that up by claiming the runner-up spot in #moto two, which was more than enough to top the overall classification and win the world title. Francisco Garcia ensured that there were two #gasgas riders in the top five; he posted 5-3 scores for fourth overall. Mathis Valin: "This is amazing. I cannot believe I have won the world championship here in Romania! I was first in #moto one and second in #moto two. Winning here was my goal. Thank you to everyone who supported me. The track was good here – I liked the jumps and the surface."  There were eleven riders aboard MC 65 machinery in the 65cc division. #francescoassini, who hails from Italy, was the strongest from that group, as he sprinted to 9-3 scores for third overall. A poor start in the first #moto stopped him from challenging for the overall victory.
