Indoors ready to rock
By Team TMX on 7th Oct 15
With the outdoor season drawing to a close eyes turn to the indoor game and the two big events of the winter at Genova and Lille will take place on the first two weekends of November.
The Bercy Supercross in the Pierre Mauroy football stadium in Lille is a little over an hour from Calais and heralds the return from suspension of James Stewart.
The US star's younger brother Malcolm also returns to the French arena with the American contingent completed by the sturdy Weston Peick and Cooper Webb who will continue his Glen Helen and Ernee battles with world champion Romain Febvre.
Naturally, the Lariviere organisers play the Nations card with Gautier Paulin also signed up while the line-up is completed by Shaun Simpson, making his big-time SX debut, Christophe Pourcel, Valentin Guillod, Dylan Ferrandis and the usual French pack led by Cedric Soubeyras and Fabien Izoird.
In SX2 Ben Watson will return in search of further podiums against Maxime Desprey, Thomas Do and a host of other Frenchmen with Livi Lancelot at the gate to spice things up.
Tickets are available for each day – Saturday November 14 and Sunday November 15 – from 49.50eruos (36 quid) at amcf.trium.fr
One week earlier the Genova Supercross, with an even older history than ‘Bercy', will run on one evening only – Saturday November 7 – in the north Italian harbour city. No information so far on the rider line-up.
