Honda Racing Corporation (HRC) is pleased to announce the renewal of the contract with 2013 Trials World Champion, Toni Bou, for a further four years.
The Repsol Honda Team and Toni Bou have struck a deal that extends the current contract (from 2007) by another four years, meaning the rider will remain with HRC until 2018.
Since Toni first arrived in the Montesa team back in 2007, he’s enjoyed unrivalled success. The young Spanish rider has picked up an incredible seven consecutive Trial Outdoor World Titles as well as eight consecutive indoor and five Spanish Championship titles and is a 9 times Trial des Nations Team Champion.
So far in 2014, Toni, who since last April now forms a part of the HRC structure, has taken victory in two Trial World Championship events and is currently leading the standings. The rider’s COTA 4RT is also presently at the top of the manufacturer’s table, a feat which Montesa (Honda) has managed for the last eight consecutive years.
Toni Bou said "I’m really pleased. I don’t think that we could have hoped for anything better this year with the integration of the team into the HRC structure. The team and the bike work really well together”.
Shuhei Nakamoto, Executive VP of HRC said that “We are very pleased to renew our relationship with Toni. He’s shown time and time again that he’s untouchable in the Trials world and I’m sure this will continue for many more years"!
