Gajser and Vertex - 2022 MXGP World Champions
Italian performance piston manufacturer Vertex is celebrating yet another year of race success - especially with all-conquering Slovenian Tim Gajser taking his fifth MXGP title (with two rounds to spare), riding the HRC CRF 450R equipped with the multi-titled Vertex GP Racer's Choice pistons.
Top of the Vertex Pistons 4-stroke off-road pistons range, the GP Racer's Choice is hot forged in high resistance VP-310 alloy, equipped with the exclusively machined, F1 inspired T-Bridge and a DLC coated pin, rings in chromed or nitrated steel and the exclusive shape of the head that Vertex has developed - a design that "guarantees excellent performance without any loss of reliability".
Gajser's title was one of many achievements for Vertex equipped riders in 2022. Jeremy Seewer is this year's MXGP Vice-Champion, Jago Geerts' the MX2 Vice-Champion and Nancy Van de Ven took the WMX world title.
All this in addition to the successes achieved by Maxime Renaux, Glenn Coldenhoff, Mitch Evans and Thibault Benistant - all finishing in the top ten of their respective classes; then there is also the achievements of Kawasaki factory rider Romain Febvre.
