Gasgas motos official news, babelfish'd:

Quote:
French pilot Nicolas Deparrois (GAS GAS FSR 450) obtained more than commendable a third seat, in the E2 category, within the framework of the second test of the Championship of Spain de Enduro that has disputed itself in Pigeon houses (Almeria). The result of the French is more commendable if it fits, when not being completely recovered of the febrile picture that presented/displayed during all the week and that physically decreased to him. This result locates quarter to him of the contest, within its category to only 2 points of podio. The Gaul, to whom still him lack something of connection to its mount due to the speed with which it made his incorporation to the equipment shortly before the beginning of the world-wide one, is improving to huge steps its yield on the GAS GAS. Although the Spanish contest like preparation for the world-wide one is taken, for that reason it does not let fight to be in the positions of ahead. The Almeri'a layout was the same one of the last year, reason why the veteran pilots had a small advantage on the newcomer ones, as it is the case of Deparrois. The tracks counted mainly on many stones but on much dust, that the visibility limited. In first half of the test, the French was second of his category in spite of losing itself in a point of the route. But in last special the effects of the fever they were made notice and the fatigue made to go down of the second a the third seat to him, a good result with the sights put in the future. Now it is quarter of the general of the national of Enduro, to only two points of podio. It is possible to emphasize the great reliability of the GG FSR 450 that, after five appointments - three of world-wide and the two of the Championship of Spain have not undergone any mechanical problem and have given a great answer to the exigencies of the pilot and to the terrain conditionses. But Deparrois was not the unique one in obtaining to successes for GAS GAS. In the other categories also there was representation of the mark of Salt. Thus, in E3 category Daniel Gilbert it was ninth. In Senior B, with motos of four times, Joaquin Vila it was third, whereas in category of two times, Sergio Leon was fifth. Category in which there were four GG between the eleven first. The next appointment of the championship, third of the calendar, will be this next weekend, 19 and 20 of April, in the onubense locality of Valverde of the Way, that will welcome two days of races. But the successes not only arrive in Spain. In Italy, in the second test of the disputed national championship in San Remo, Maurizio Casartelli obtained to the second position in the Senior category with the four times and everything in spite of participating with a broken finger.
