Championship quest for Coppins and Searle at first GP in the Midlands -ozzy go-

The second “unseen” track of the 15 round FIM Motocross World
Championship calendar will host this weekend the penultimate
round of the series.

Fox Racing, the industry leader, values the on-going partnership
with Youthstream for the 2007 FOX Grand Prix of Great Britain,
and will have logo presence at the event via track signage and
selected hospitality areas.

MX1 Championship leader Joshua Coppins, who has been
missing the latest two rounds and scored no points at Loket
when he injured his left shoulder, will come back at Donington
after his last minute decision of skipping Moneyglass. In the
meantime, runner up Steve Ramon has shortened the gap to
12 points.

Antonio Cairoli, who has won his second World Title at
Moneyglass, will make his maiden GP appearance in the MX1
class this weekend. Christophe Pourcel is out with a broken
sacrum, and British star Tommy Searle can secure the second
place in the Championship by scoring only six points.

The second and final round of the FIM Veterans’ Motocross
World Cup will take place this weekend with Senior class
leader Dave Thorpe looking forward to his home event, where
Charles “Chuck” Sun from America will enter his first round of
the Cup in the Senior class. In the Veteran class, Kiwi leader
Tony Cooksley hopes to clinch another double victory as he did
in Namur.
