The last WEC round took place last week end under the heavy rain of Boussac, in France. Husqvarna CH Racing rider Bartosz Oblucki, who does really enjoy bad weather condition, used his skills to take advantage of his rivals. On Saturday race, Bartosz had no problems in taking the lead position and, while the other Enduro 1 class riders were in trouble because of the muddy track, Bartosz arrived at the finish line on first position beating Belometti, who was at that time third placed in the provisional final classification.

On day 2, the weather condition were the same and Bart was confident about gaining the same result. Since the mud was even worst than the previous day, Oblucki decided to take it easy and slow down a little bit his rhythm in order to avoid any mistake. He maybe slowed too much so that second placed rider Marc Germain succeeded in passing the Polish rider and winning the race. Bart arrived at 5 seconds from Germain, on second place, but that was just enough for him to conquer the third step of the podium.

Oblucki declared at the end of the race: "It has been an hard and tough race, but I'm very satisfied with my results. My WR 125 was perfect for the track conditions and helped me beating Albergoni. We had a real good battle on day one! Today I was feeling confident about the result. Again the track was so muddy and my two stroke bike was perfect to deal with it, while I saw so many riders in trouble during the race. A first and a second places are the best way to end the season. Now I'll be focus on the training for the whole winter to make sure I'll be in a perfect shape at the next seasons' start."

Another great result comes from Husqvarna Armee de Terre Team's rider Marc Bourgeois on WR 125. Marc got on both days the first position and got the second step of the podium. The French rider was in a perfect shape and so fast that he recorded a better time than E1 riders on Sunday. Enduro fans were pleased to see another big protagonist of the category getting back to the races: Anders Eriksson. The Swedish rider got on both days the 6th position and declared: " I'm so happy to be back to the races: I really missed the atmosphere of the paddock! Being able to finish both races made me understand that my rehabilitation helped a lot and I?m almost getting back to be in a perfect shape. I'm still training a lot, but I can say the worst has gone." Also Thomas Oldrati, fresh Enduro European Champion, took part to the race and got the 8th place in the Enduro Junior class on Day 1.
