The Frenchman Christophe Pourcel was riding in Den Dungen(Holland-Brabant) on Wednesday. Pourcel did some final adjustments to the bike before he travels to Germany to participate in round nine of the World Championship Series. Roger van de Donk was in Den Dungen to film Pourcel!

It's a three minute video. What you don't see is him pulling off at the four minute mark because he is so out of shape....

That wasnt impressive at all. Hopefully he was just cruising around just gettin in some seat time. If that is what he is bringing then Cairoli and crew will be latering him. I say he he will be fighting for top 10.

He is French, so hopefully no bodies bike back fires or he will be waving a white flag and surrendering.

The kids got skillz, but in all seriousness, he has done the unthinkable in the U.S by not showing up for a race, and in turn perhaps destroyed any chances of him coming back on a factory like team?

I couldn't think of a worse way to shit on your team by simply not showing up to a race, without announcing anything before hand. Who in their right mind who hire someone like this, regardless of their speed.

People forget that he was one of few riders that showed pace to RV2 in the 250f class, he should be up there with the big 3 battling out this year, but i feel that you'll never see him race competively on US soil again.

Feel free to disagree, but let me know why.

Possibly? But for two completely different reasons.

One rider's body continues to fail and doesn't seem to fully recover, while the other simply chose to not turn up for work?

Looks the same as he did on the yamaha
I thought the opposite. When I saw him on the Yamaha, I thought he looked weird and uncomfortable. He looks really loose and fluid on the KX.

Pourcel is brilliant to watch, such a nice style.

Nice to see him giving the MX1 World Championship a shot.

Mod Killer... that is a load of arrogant disrespectful nationalist rubbish.. there are just as many if not more top outdoor riders in MX1 GPs as the AMA... and all the GP guys are racing outside their own country every week on a greater variety of tracks over a longer series.

AMA is no better than the World Championship, it's just different.

A breakup song singing "We Could've Had it All" for a Pourcel vid?


HAHAHA, how appropriate.


BTW, any pro can look smooth while cruising around testing settings. Let's wait till this weekend before rushing to any judgement, good or bad.

One thing is for sure though, whatever he does, he better finish both motos.
