The FIM Motocross World Championship
started in superb fashion for the Rockstar
Energy Suzuki World MX1 teamlast weekend when Clement Desalle clinched victory after an exciting
duel with Steven Frossard across the jump-laden hard-pack of Sevlievo
for the Grand Prix of Bulgaria. It was a memorable launch to the
season for the Belgian squad and Team Principal Sylvain Geboers with
the 2011 factory RM-Z450 race machinery and reinforced the belief many
uphold regarding 21 year old Desalle as one of the firm favourites for
the MX1 title this season.
"It was an ideal start not
only for us but for people who like the sport because the racing was
very entertaining. It seemed like we had a record total of good wishes
and congratulations afterwards; everywhere from Japan, USA to South
America. It is great to see that people are watching and following us.
"Clement
has prepared himself well for this season and has worked on his weak
points. His fitness has really improved compared to last year and he is
still very determined but is now riding a little bit more with his
head. An example of this was seen in the second moto. He took the
holeshot but was passed at the beginning and did not react badly to
this. He continued to ride at his own speed. I think this shows that he
is not putting himself under pressure.
