The 2021 FIM Trial125 World Championship ends exactly as it began, with favourite Jack Dance winning. The GASGAS driver has successfully completed a spectacular season in the eighth litre, winning with authority in the last scoring race, held in Cahors, knowing that the last scheduled event, in Tong (Great Britain), was finally suspended.
Going into the final round of the Trial125 championship at the top of the class standings, Jack put in a championship performance in France, completing the first lap with just one point on his scorecard. Heading into the second pass through the zones, the key was to stay calm and manage the advantage, something they achieved after scoring just four points and leading their main rival, Guadi Vall, by ten points.
Jack’s victory means the title ahead of Harry Hemingway, runner-up 18 points behind.
DECLARATIONS
jack dance (P1)"It's an amazing feeling to be the Trial125 World Champion. It's been a tough season, staying at the top of the standings, but my family and the whole GASGAS team have been there to support me, and that's been a big help. Today I only focused on the race and not on becoming world champion, because otherwise the pressure would have been too much. It was an amazing feeling to get out of zone 12. I wanted to come and win today, not only to secure the championship, but because it's an amazing feeling for the team and my family."
Albert Cabestany (Team Manager)"The star of the French GP is obviously Jack Dance. Today he did it and it was not an easy task. The sections for the Trial125 guys were really easy, so after starting last and having to deal with all the pressure, he really showed that he deserves this title. I'm very happy for him, for his family and for John Shirt, who supports him at UK level, so I can only congratulate them because they have done a great job. The team mechanics helped him fine-tune the bike and make it his own, but in the end, Jack is the star and the one who made our bike shine. Congratulations Jack! We are very happy to have him in the team."
