Andy Posted July 10, 2016 Report Share Posted July 10, 2016 We were actually just talking about it and apparently it's a "class" not a "championship" so the term "world champion" would be incorrect, though we're in agreement nobody is going to deny the lad his moment. Same with Jack Peace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 sorry yes, a win at the first day in the uk and hes champ. bit mean not to be a champion though. Agreed. Everyone is saying Jack Peace 125 World Champion and technically he is, but not officially by FIM rules. It's stupid, IMO. They work hard and spend loads to do these events. The achievement should be correctly reflected. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heffergm Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Wait, what? Is this the FIM equivalent of no-stop in according championship honors? How the hell is the 125 champion not the 125 world champion??? The entire point of having a multi-class championship is to award honors in those classes. Ask Valentino how many world championships he's won and he'll be damn sure to remind you it's 9, which includes one in 125 and one in 250.

Andy Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Trial125 and Trial2 are both "World Cup" series. Only TrialGP is a "World Championship". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted July 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 So the 125cc class, which was such a good idea till the Spanish on behalf of Pol Tarres managed to bend the rules, on its ars$ with entries yet it isnt a world championship any more? That'll help then. FFS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
