Bou takes victory and Marcelli rounds off the podium in Andorra

Toni Bou continues his streak of good results. Marcelli completes the podium and consolidates third place overall.

The return of the Indoor Trial World Championship could not have gone better for the Repsol Honda Trial Team. Toni Bou picked up from where he left off before the mid-year break and won the event. Gabriel Marcelli accompanied him on the podium in third place.

Bou started the first lap making some mistakes that led him to picking up 4 penalty points, going into second position behind Jaime Busto. The Repsol Honda Trial Team rider used his experience and rode an impeccable second lap in which he incurred only one point, reaching the final at the head of the classification. Facing Marcelli and Busto, he continued in the same vein and took another victory -his fourth so far this season.

Marcelli started the second part of the 2023 season with a podium. On the first lap, a fiasco on Zone 3 took him down to third position, but on the second lap the Montesa Cota 4RT rider maintained a high level that has led him to compete in the final together with his teammate, Bou, and Jaime Busto. Marcelli finally rounded off the rostrum at the Poliesportiu D’Andorra.

Bou increases his advantage over his nearest rival in the championship, Jaime Busto, to 25 points. Marcelli consolidates his position in third place overall with 58 points. The next event will be on November 4th in Madrid, where Bou will have the first opportunity to clinch his seventeenth indoor title.
