Two wins at the British Trial Grand Prix over the weekend has seen Toni Bou – Repsol Montesa move closer to taking the 2013 FIM Trial World Championship. This would be his seventh successive outdoor title and would match the achievement of Dougie Lampkin. Jordi Tarres also holds seven FIM Trial World Championships, but his did not come all in a row. Speaking after his most recent wins, and after surviving a late crash Bou stated the following. "It was almost a perfect weekend right until nearly the end. The crash in section seven on the final lap was a big and painful one. As soon as I landed on the rock I knew it was quite serious, especially when I saw that the blood was coming out quickly. The team made a good reaction and did a good repair to get me to the finish. I am sore, but now that the doctor has closed the hole I should be OK in a few days. These two wins this weekend are very important for the championship, but we still have work to do in France."The final round of the 2013 FIM Trial World Championship will be played out in Isola 2000, France over 31st August / 1st September.
