A busy finale to the 2007 FIM Motocross World Championship began under grey clouds, low temperatures and rainfall at the Loket circuit as Kevin Strijbos clinched the Grand Prix of Czech Republic; the eleventh round of fifteen in the series and first of five events in six weeks. Julien Bill took the Martin Honda CRF450F to a career-best fifth position overall. The MX1 podium was headed by Belgian Strijbos for the second time this season as the 21 year old notched his first ever double moto success with two wins in damp conditions. The rostrum was completed by Sebastien Pourcel in second place and David Philippaerts in third spot.
Josh Coppins has won a steaming Motocross Grand Prix of Bulgaria at Sevlievo for the eighth round in the 2007 MX1 World Championship. Antonio Cairoli took the MX2 class honors for the seventh time this season in front of a 26,000 crowd. Honda's highest placed man on the day was Ken de Dycker with sixth position while Martin Honda's Pascal Leuret just missed the MX2 podium.
