IBIZA GRAND PRIX 5.6.7 SEPTEMBER 2014

UIM CLASS 1 AND V1 WORLD POWERBOAT CHAMPIONSHIP

UIM ABP AQUABIKE CLASS PRO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

Ibiza Grand Prix 5.6.7 September 2014 THE CLASS 1 WORLD POWERBOAT CHAMPIONSHIPS is a breath-taking event widely regarded as the pinnacle of world powerboat racing.

Class 1 Grand Prix implies a three-day extravaganza where passion for SPEED, iNNOVATIVE IDEAS and ENTERTAINMENT join forces in a spectacular surrounding to create a unique sporting experience The race-boats are twin-engined and can reach speeds in excess of 257 km h (160mph), with V12 engines limited in performance to 850hp at 7600 rpm and V8 engines limited in performance to 850hp at 6100 rpm.

AQUABIKE is speed and fun in its pure state. One of the most spectacular international water sport competitions producing non stop action, edge-of-the-seat racing, impossible feats of acrobatics and jaw-dropping grit and determination of endurance racing.

Furthermore the competition will be reinforced by spectacular freestyle championships in which the bikers show off their stunts over water, a magnificent finale to the sporting week IBIZA host.

You can see in this publication information about THE CLASS 1 race and the CLASS PRO AQUABIKE race, held on 7 September. The pictures are made by me.

I hope you like it

WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP RACES - 2nd Heat Runabout GP1 Sunday, 7 September, IBIZA

It was a second impressive performance by Pons who first had to fend off an early challenge from Sweden’s Lars Sebastian Akerblom and then from lap 8 of 17 his main Championship rival, Jeremy Perez.

Despite the constant pressure from Perez, Pons held on to win by five seconds, today’s result moving him seven points clear in the Championship standings, with Akerblom unable to match and stay with the pace of the front two but coming home for his best result on the UIM-ABP tour in third and take third overall.

Yousef Al Abdulrazzaq and Francois Medori enjoyed their own personal tussle, Medori getting ahead on lap five, Abdulrazzaq getting fourth place back on lap 16, Alejandro Molina the first Spanish rider to take the chequered flag completing the top six
