Grand Prix Kawasaki Racing’s Sébastien Pourcel won his third heat of the year in Mantova and for the third time in a row he reached the podium with a second position overall in the Grand Prix of Italy.

MotoGP Meets MXGP
16 May 2008
Normally found circulating the racetracks aboard his Ninja ZX-RR MotoGP machine, Anthony West got the chance this week to test a factory Kawasaki race bike of a very different sort. A keen off-roader when he's not racing in MotoGP, West was quick to accept an invitation from GPKR Team Manager, Patrick Geladé, to join the factory Kawasaki GPKR motocross team at a private off-road test track in Belgium, before heading off to Le Mans for this weekend's French Grand Prix.

Double Podium in Bulgaria for the GPKR Team
13 May 2008
Team Grand Prix Kawasaki Racing celebrated another GP win this weekend as Livia Lancelot won the opening round of the Women’s World Championship. Home of the Bulgarian GP for several years now Sevlievo offered two different types of race this year as the weather changed so fast on Sunday. The first races took place on a dry track in hot temperatures before a storm changed the conditions between the heats. On Saturday the track was in perfect condition and once more Sébastien Pourcel was the fastest rider in all the sessions scoring his third consecutive pole position. Fastest during the free practice periods Livia Lancelot didn’t find a clear lap during the timed session and qualified third in the Women’s class.

Livia, Christophe & Sébastien In Final Top Four Rankings
04 September 2007
The world championship ended this weekend in the deep sand of Lierop, where Livia Lancelot collected the best overall result of the season for Team GPKR with a second place in the Women’s World Cup. With Livia second, the absent Christophe third in the MX2 class and Sébastien fourth in the MX1 Championship, the team collected strong results from its second year of activity. Home of Grand Prix racing for several years Lierop is one of the toughest tracks of the series and was more demanding than ever as the riders had already raced five GPs in the last six weeks. For the ladies, who made their first outing on a sandy track, it was even worse but their races were finally as exciting as the MX1 and MX2 heats.

Pourcel Runner-Up At His home Grand Prix
11 June 2007
The World Championship was back in Europe this weekend two weeks after the trip to Japan. On their home track of Saint Jean d’Angely the French riders left without celebrating any victory. Christophe Pourcel finished runner-up in the MX2 class, while Sébastien Pourcel took seventh place in MX1. Christophe owned a holeshot and won his qualifying race on Saturday and entered the starting grid first for the races. He chose a place in the middle of the gate for the opening moto but missed a decent start as he was around the tenth into the first corner. Sixth after the first lap, he needed seven circulations to come back to second behind Cairoli, who proved again to be a strong leader.

First GP Win This Season For Christophe Pourcel In Japan
27 May 2007
It seems that the Japanese round of the Motocross World Championship suits Christophe Pourcel and his Team GPKR. One year ago in Sugo he obtained the red plate as leader of the series and this weekend - on the bumpy Japanese track - he collected his first Grand Prix win of the season. Home of the Japanese round for three years now, Sugo is without any doubt one of the roughest track of the series. Designed in a natural valley, the circuit has a soft ground with sand and wood chippings mixed into the earth. After heavy rain on Friday the riders had to deal with deep ruts and bumps through practice and into the races on this challenging but demanding layout.

Kawasaki's Pourcel Misses First Victory
24 April 2007
Christophe Pourcel missed a first win of the season in Agueda after he crashed while leading the second heat of the Portuguese Grand Prix. Despite some heavy rain on Friday evening and fog this morning - that forced the organizers to postpone the warm up - the weather has been perfect in Agueda for the third round of fifteen in the series. The track was demanding and the conditions were difficult for the riders, with warm temperatures and high humidity but the racing was once more again in both classes.
