VIDEO - Cairoli is looking to outgun the gun

May 16, 2008

After last week’s heroics by Tommy Searle and Shaun Simpson this weekend in Italy looks set to be one hell of a race.

Tony Cairoli is certainly looking for revenge and what better place than his own GP, but Tommy will be ready and if you add Rattray, Simpson, Sword and a few others the scene is set for a great weekend.

The same can be said in MX1, Barragan was unlucky not to win but hit the dirt after a crazy misjudgement on one of the final jumps of the Bulgarian circuit last week, Pourcel took the win and expect him and Barragan to add more spice to the pot this weekend, one rider who you certainly can’t forget is Phillipaerts on his home soil, add Coppins, Ramon and our own Billy Mackenzie and we have a race made in heaven.
