World Celebrities Motocross Race RESULTS‏





Guadalajara,
Mexico (August 14, 2010)
- A massive Mexican crowd was on hand as
the ten world celebrities rode the motocross track of Guadalajara
(Tlajomulco). In the first race, Sebastien Tortelli took the victory
after a fierce battle with Stefan Everts, David Vuillemin and Sean
Hamblin. After grabbing the holeshot, Vuillemin extended his
advantage over the field on the first lap but Tortelli, Everts and
Hamblin came back from behind and battled for the win. Unfortunately
Doug Dubach crashed on the second lap and Jason Thomas’ bike broke
and he was done for the day. For the last race of the weekend, it’s
winner takes all, Tortelli, the French two times World Champion
worked his way into the lead after the second lap, engaging in a
great battle with Everts, Balbi and Huffman. The crowd loved it every
second of it. The 2010 World Celebrities Motocross race is over but
it will be back next year. See you in 2011.


Stefan
Everts
: “Unfortunately my start was not so good in the 2nd
race. Sebastien pushed really hard in the first lap and it took me a
while to pass Balbi. I had a very good weekend, the fans here in
Mexico are awesome. I’ll be back next year if I’m invited.”


David
Vuillemin
: “I did two holeshots today. It was fun to race up
front. I still had some problems with my front brake but that was ok.
This event is about having fun you know. The track was very good, we
were lucky with the weather. I’m glad I came and I will be back
next year for sure.”


Damon
Huffman
: “I had lots of fun today. I gave everything I had for
the last race of the day because I really wanted to be on the podium.
I haven’t rode that hard for a very long time. I’m happy, it felt
great to be out there. I signed lots of autographs, everybody is
treating us well. Hopefully I’ll come back and do it all over
again.”


Antonio
Balbi
: “I rode tight in the last race because Stefan Everts was
behind me and I didn’t want to do anything stupid you know. He was
riding better than me and passed me. That was a great weekend. I wish
I could do that more often. It’s a pleasure to ride with those
champions.”


Doug
Dubach
: “I crashed in the first race of the day so I don’t
want to talk about it. During the 2nd race I did a little
off track excursion, it was not really a crash. I went to 3rd
to last. It doesn’t matter because I had fun. This whole event was
great. It was a top-level organization. Thank you to Sebastien and
all his Mexican crew.”



Sean
Hamblin
: “I had a great weekend. Everything was perfect. I love
my Honda with the 420 number on it. I hope I can keep it for next
year. No just kidding. I cant’ complain because we had an awesome
time together with Sebastien, Stefan, DV, etc. I enjoyed to be with
10 great riders and having a good time on the track for the crowd. I
can’t wait to come back to Guadalajara next year.”


Jason
Thomas
: “I didn’t have the best bike obviously. We rode a lot
and lots of things broke on it. I didn’t want to take a chance
getting hurt so I didn’t ride the last moto. Too bad because it was
very entertaining and I would have liked to be part of it. I’ll do
better next year.”
