Alexis Masbou lacked oxygen in Moto3 but he regained his health in Endurance by taking a good breath… of fresh air! A golden opportunity transformed by a victory at the end of the 80th edition of the legendary Bol d'Or event in the Superstock category.
Something to put a smile back on the face of someone who is also a schoolteacher on the Albi route. A site that he will survey as a competitor during the FSBK final in the land of the Cathars. And Alexis Masbou set it on fire! “ I am happy to announce that this weekend, I will compete, again with the Moto Ain team, in the last round of the FSBK in Albi in the Supersport 600 category” announced the double Moto3 winner. This Bol d’Or was a success. I needed to rediscover this pleasure of speed and fighting in racing and that's what Moto Ain offered me during this 80th Bol d'Or ».
Looking back on his experience, he specifies: “ I discovered the Yamaha R1 and I was pleasantly surprised throughout this Bol d'Or. Whether by the driving it requires, by its power or by its chassis, I had a lot of fun driving it. The weekend went perfectly and it really makes me want to try the endurance experience again. If I had already driven at night in Qatar, it was almost as light as in broad daylight, whereas here, it is practically by the light of the headlights that we drive and that is something that gives you incredible sensations! I loved riding on the Castelet circuit in the middle of the night and the night relays went very well. ". To be continued now in Supersport!
Furthermore, don't forget that the Superbike final will be broadcast live and free on the L’Equipe channel.
