ROOKSTOOL replaces BOLTON

"2015 Rookie of the Year” Paul BOLTON (GB – KTM) has announced his withdrawal from the championship after a huge crash during the first heat of the German GP, despite an awesome time in SuperPole.

"It is with great disappointment that I made a decision to withdraw from the championship. Following my crash in Riesa, I have a few small injuries and I am very glad they are not serious. But there is simply no point in me racing SuperEnduro injured because the level is so high and I want to give 100% to put on a great show and get the result I deserve!"

But as we say: "The misfortune of some makes the happiness of others!” So, it is Kevin ROOKSTOOL (USA – Sherco) who will replace the Brits in Grading List! Actually 11th overall, the US Ironman will have the privilege to be directly qualified for the main event without going through the qualifications…

Very fast, the Sherco rider proved on some heats that he has what it takes to come and fight for a Top 5 spot in the Prestige class and this direct qualification should take away this pressure that plays him tricks sometimes.

Even if Paul BOLTON withdrawal is sad, the Grading List level will not weaken with the arrival of Kevin ROOKSTOOL who's the 5th representative of the Stars and Stripes in SuperEnduro !

Kevin ROOKSTOOL joins Mario ROMAN (N°74) and the stars of the Grading List.
