Demonstrating overwhelming consistency in the MXGP World Championship
Fierce battle in the highest category of motocross
MXGP is a motocross world championship held mainly in Europe, but also in Asia and Latin America. The undulating courses, with jumps, whoops, long straights, and other features, mean that road conditions change with each lap. This is a sport that requires tires to have high overall performance, including traction, braking power, and cornering ability.
The MXGP class, the highest category in MXGP, is a fierce battle between the world’s top riders. Romain Febvre of Kawasaki Racing Team MXGP emerged victorious from this grueling battle to become champion.
Incredible consistency in maintaining the lead from the 7th race
Febvre rose to the top of the rankings in the seventh round in Portugal and engaged in a fierce battle for the lead with other riders trying to catch up. He never gave up the lead after that, demonstrating overwhelming consistency.
His 16 podium finishes in total, including five overall victories in the series, speaks volumes about Febvre’s ability and the high performance of DUNLOP tires.
