The harshest of the descents and ascents played a pivotal role in the first moto of the WMX FIM World Championship where Nancy Van de Ven, Courtney Duncan, Livia Lancelot (home favourite and former winner at Villars) and Kiara Fontanesi (with mud splattered MotoGP boyfriend Scott Redding in tow) were separated by just five points. Duncan led and crashed, Lancelot also fell after closing down a big gap from fourth position but it was on the last lap and the steepest hill where it all kicked-off.

Duncan had fought her way back into a hefty lead from Fontanesi, a cautious Van de Ven and Lancelot rallying hard again but came unstuck: literally. The peak of the long uphill drag had become a crash site for at least four bikes and the angle of the incline made it impossible for competitors to retrieve their machines. The track was blocked when Duncan made her way up. She veered off course, tipped over and tumbled. It took her a full 2-3 panic-fuelled minutes to ride up and attempt to clear the section, by which time Fontanesi had been through and skirted outside the track markers and Van de Ven had also followed. Lancelot had crashed again at the base of the hill but picked up to take third. Duncan – again almost foiled in her bid for a world title by factors out of her control for the second year in a row (she clipped a photographer and crashed fracturing her ankle and wrist last summer) – tearfully finished sixth and as the last rider on the same circulation.

The dispute for crucial points continued once the engines had stopped. Protests were lodged by Van de Ven as well as Duncan over Fontanesi’s alternative path to avoid the carnage. Race Direction reviewed the footage and the testimonies. The results were altered to classify the race a lap before the incident but further review later reversed the decision and installed the original standing, placing Fontanesi as the winner. The upshot? The points now look like this with one moto to go: Fontanesi – 238, Van de Ven – 237, Lancelot – 230, Duncan – 221.

WMX chronically lacks depth outside the leading elite but there can be no doubting the drama and spectacle. At one stage early in the first race today all four riders were hitting different lines in the same corner and rarely has any FIM competition seen a quartet pushing for a world title in the last fixture of a championship. For the fourth time in the last sixth years WMX will go right down to the final minutes.

Comme à Villars : de gros nuages entre 2 éclaircies

The Grand Prix weekend started with a meeting between the manufacturers and Youthstream. Allegedly a number of topics were discussed but the intention was for a twenty-date 2018 calendar with four flyaway Grands Prix. The official schedule will be published in the first week of October. The MX2 23 age rule remains rigidly in place for the foreseeable, and the future of the troublesome USGP is still unclear. There is some concern among the paddock over the apparent collapse of the MX2 efforts by Kawasaki and Suzuki and another narrowing of opportunity. Plenty to discuss further then, and it will be curious to see how MXGP will work its way through a 61st year of being an FIM World Championship.

From Josh Coppins Racing;
« Leading by 15secs on the final lap, 5 riders were crashed which blocked the hill when Courtney arrived. She had to divert off the track to get around them resulting in a crash and getting stuck in a fence.
After a jury meeting immediately after the race, FIM decided they would award points from the lap prior due to the track being blocked and unsafe. We were then called back to the jury and they reversed the decision after seeking legal advice.
Overall she is now 4th & 9 points off the lead with her final race tomorrow. As you can imagine, Courtney and the team are disappointed however she will go out tomorrow and give it her all. Thanks for all your support from around the world and especially our sponsors. »
