Moto Tour Series Tunisia J4: Twist again !
Jeremy Barnoin (KTM 990 SMT) wins once again by winning the three specials completed (out of the five scheduled) and consolidates his lead in the overall standings. Numerous falls forced the organizers to shorten the route. Story.
The day got off to a good start and the first special went off without any particular problem: Jeremy Barnoin dominated the debate and imposed his KTM 990 SMT. but the trouble begins on the second passage of Oued El Khil: a big fall in the last numbers will cause a significant delay in the timing of the stage…
- MNC of 22 November 2017 :
- MNC of 5 December 2017 :
The race direction therefore decides to cancel the last special of the morning: a fixed time will be allocated to the last few drivers who did not leave before this big crash..
Following the delay, the CH noon was postponed to 2 p.m., but the pilots were able to enjoy the delicious meal that was planned.
As the time lost could not be made up, the last special of the day was also canceled. Timing, when you hold us! After the departure of the CH meal, given from 3:00 p.m., there was therefore only one special and a hundred kilometers of liaison to end the day.
In addition to Jeremy Barnoin’s festival of special victories, Christophe Overnay did not fail to put on a show at the controls of his Husaberg 450 FE, largely winning the 750 category.
We should also note the superb performance of Tunisian driver Tarek Azabou (BMW S1000 RR), who finished in second position of the stage and consolidated his third place in the provisional general.
As yesterday, on the 3 and 4 wheel side, the Pauline / Damien Lepage crew flew over the category classification at the controls of their Yamaha 1000 YZF team..
Apart from the discomfort caused by the few delays of the day, all the participants are delighted (but tired) with this very technical course with landscapes as grandiose as they are magnificent.
Today Monday, a 560 km course will take us to Hammamet for the arrival of the Moto Tour Series Tunisia 2018. Two stages will be covered and will determine the winners of this edition. See you this evening for the summary of this last stage and the complete classification of the rally. !
