2007 Maxxis 12 Hours of Pont De Vaux - Press Release

Maxxis Pont de Vaux Links
Pont de Vaux, France (8/28/2007) - The 21st Mondial du Quad of Pont de Vaux took place in Pont de Vaux (Ain) saw the victory for the second consecutive year of the Belgian team Piron, on a Yamaha 450 YZF ridden as last year by the trio Alexandre Piron/Stéphane Piron/Guy Meertens.

With 120 teams who have represented more than 20 nations, this unmissible event in the world of ATV had gathered the top riders with many winners of the previous years. A third of the competitors is made by pilots who are under 18, a proof of the increasing interest for this race.

The 3 rounds (3 hours on Saturday, 5 hours by night and 4 hours on Sunday) have seen many surprises on a so hard, fast and technical track. We have believed during a long time that the young trio Romain Couprie/Clément Jay/Anthony Jay maybe the fastest on the track, would have win. But in an endurance race, surprises are numerous.

In addition to the main event, the 12 Hours and its little sister the PDV Quad Contest, for the 1st time this year bike s could race on the mythical circuit of Pont de Vaux for the Défi Motos. Many activities as well as in Pont de Vaux than in the QuadExpo have attracted the public who was very numerous. Stephane Peterhansel was also there for making shows on the track with a Mitsubishi Pajero of the Paris Dakar, made as you know in Pont de Vaux.

This year, the organisation gave its best and wish to see you on August 22, 23 and 24 2008 on the meadow of Bresse for an event which is know as a very important date for the World ATV scene.
