Endurance Bol d’Or: Ducati like in MotoGP!

The 100th anniversary edition of the Bol d'Or, the final round of the FIM World Endurance Championship, was launched after drivers raced across the track to their respective machines at 15:00 p.m.

Markus Reiterberger, the driver of the BMW Motorrad World Endurance Team, retained the advantage of pole position in the first turns before giving way to Mike Di Meglio, of FCC TSR Honda France, himself immediately overtaken by Gregg Black (Yoshimura SERT Motul) in the long straight of the Mistral.

Xavi Forés took the lead in a superb four-way duel on the same Mistral straight on the fourth lap and was still leading when he made his first refueling, handing over to his teammate Chaz Davies after 21 laps.

Only here, 4 hours after departure, the Ducati of Chaz Davies, David Checa and Xavi Fores is still in the lead, even one lap ahead of her pursuers! An unusual show due to technical problems encountered by the usual headliners.

These few tweets give us an idea of ​​the misfortunes of the main favorites…
