With keen eyes and a predatory smile, the baby seems ready to fight as soon as he has the opportunity to let go of the bottle. It will then be time to enjoy the Yamaha R6 with which his dad was crowned Supersport World Champion. We are at the Crutchlow with a Cal who is already educating his daughter Willow in the essentials. Like father, like son…
We will see what happens in the future, but we feel predisposed to put the handle in the corner. Cal Crutchlow didn't put her daughter Willow's seat on any machine. This is the Yamaha R6 which allowed him to win his only World Champion title. That of Supersport.
The Yamaha World Supersport team enlisted him in 2009 to complete the Supersport world championship alongside Fabien Foret. From the start of the season, he showed his advantage. Fourth at Phillip Island, third in Doha, he won his first victory on the Valencia circuit in Spain.
The rest of the campaign revealed the domination of the Englishman who took the upper hand over his teammate Fabien Foret and on his other adversaries who are the Turkish Kenan Sofuoğlu and Irish Eugene Laverty. With five victories, three second places and two third places, he became Supersport world champion with Yamaha, ending a series of seven rider titles obtained by the Ten Kate Honda team.
