Ramon Closes on Series Lead
07 August 2007
Steve Ramon has closed to within 43 points of injured World MX1 Championship leader Josh Coppins after taking fifth place at his home GP at Namur in Belgium - round 12 of the series. The fourth-to-last meeting in the 2007 campaign saw both Ramon and Kevin Strijbos guide their works RM-Z450s to fifth and sixth positions respectively in what was a busy home Grand Prix for the squad. The Namur circuit provided its usual perilous test: The bumpy and dusty tree-lined track was extremely narrow and permitted very few clear-cut passing opportunities. Both slippery and rough the mud also saw occasional tree roots coming through the terrain presenting an additional hazard in what was an already very quick course.
