I’m very satisfied with this victory at the first international event of the season, after the bad taste not being able to win last year’s last test left in my mouth. More so when it comes right before the imminent start of the World Championship, in which I plan to recover the Title.*Grasse Trials Classification1. Laia Sanz (Montesa) 0 (0+0) 2.
