First win for Ristori

Congratulations to Marc Ristori, who last weekend won his first MX Grand-Prix in Germany. With a 4th place in the practice run, Marc was quite confident for the upcoming race. Marc started in 3rd place in the first heat. In just the 2nd lap, he took the lead and finished the race eleven seconds ahead of his chasers Christian Beggi (I) and Enrico Oddenino (I).


In the 2nd heat, Marc started in fourth position and ended up in 3rd. Scott rider Yves Demaria won this heat in front of the Belgian Sven Breugelmanns.
Marc’s Teammate Mathieu Doutaz finished in 15th position in the overall classification.
After a bad season start last year, the Swiss DBMX Team is improving this year from race to race in the MX3 Worldchampionships.


Ristori is now in fourth position in the overall classification, close to the top 3 in the MX3 GP.

MX3 World Cup standings:

1. Demaria, 211 pts SCOTT
2. Breugelmans, 198 pts
3. Oddenino, 184 pts
4. Ristori, 179 pts SCOTT
