The names of the 8 pilots of the 47th UNIVERSAE Indoor Trial in Barcelona (first round of the 2024 X-Trial World Championship) and also those of the pilots who will compete in the fourth edition of the Women’s Trophy in Barcelona are already known. The entire trial elite will be at the Palau Sant Jordi at the start of the indoor World Championship: Toni Bou, Jaime Busto, Gabriel Marcelli, Adam Raga, Toby Martyn, Aniol Gelabert, Matteo Grattarola and Benoît Bincaz.
For its part, the top-5 women from the last TrialGP Women World Championship will star in the only indoor confrontation of the entire season: Emma Bristow, Berta Abellán, Andrea Sofia Rabino, Naomi Monnier and Alice Minta.
The most successful athlete of all time is a trials pilot and his name is Toni Bou. On Sunday, February 4, the man from Piera will take to the Palau Sant Jordi court to try to achieve his 17th victory in the cathedral. A magical number for the Montesa rider, because they are also the world titles in each specialty (17 outdoor and 17 indoor) held by the best trials rider of all time.
Emma Bristow has won the three editions that have been held of the Women’s Trophy…and she intends to continue monopolizing the record of the only women’s indoor trials competition held in the world. The confrontation between the nine-time TrialGP world champion and the great local figure and world runner-up Berta Abellán promises to be electrifying once again.
Another driver who will attract all eyes will be Adam Raga. The six-time world champion begins, at 41 years old, a new stage in his sporting life driving for the Franco-Spanish brand Sherco. Winner at the Sant Jordi on six occasions – the last in 2019 -, the one from Ulldecona says that he still has the ropes for a while. And he wants to prove it.
February 4, 2024 will be a day that will not be forgotten by two young pilots who will experience their debut in the most desired setting. Aniol Gelabert and Alice Minta thus receive the best award for a brilliant 2023 season.
The new TRRS driver – replacement for Adam Raga in the Catalan brand – and the new British champion of Europe and her country in 2023 will have the privilege of competing at the Palau Sant Jordi. An event that has seen, for almost 50 years, all the legends of world trials: Bou, Raga, Tarrés, Lampkin, Colomer, Fujinami, Lejeune, etc.
