Suzuki Dominates Bol d’Or, Securing 20th Victory

Suzuki has once again reigned supreme at the Bol d’Or endurance race, claiming its 20th victory in the prestigious event. The Yoshimura SERT Motul team, representing Suzuki, secured the win with a stellar performance from riders Gregg Black, Dan Linfoot, and Étienne Masson.

This victory marks the second EWC title for Yoshimura SERT Motul and the 13th overall for the team, solidifying their status as one of the most dominant forces in endurance racing. The achievement is particularly impressive considering Suzuki’s near-exit from racing in 2022.
