Watching this with my 14 year old daughter - when the announcer said 18 consecutive championships when Toni finished section 6, she said "18 in a row!" With his outdoor and indoor, it is an unbelievable record. Toni is the definition of the GOAT! Viva Montesa!
In the motorsport only Agostini and Loeb can be somehow compared to Bou. Loeb won 9 rally championship in a row, which is an incredible achievement, and Agostini was dominant for 6 years, in which he won 12 consecutive championships, I mean 6 in 350 and 6 in 500, because he was riding in two categories. But no one did like Bou. Bou never lost in 18 years, indoor and outdoor. He is still here, winning, when all his original competitors have already retired. No one, in any sport, has shown such a dominance like this man. Given the result of this night, he might reach 20+20. No one like him. He is the GOAT. Too bad this amazing sport does not have many followers, and most people don't even know who this man is.
Björn Dunkerbeck won the Professional Windsurfers Association Overall World Championship 42 times (More than one category a year, similar to Bou's XTrial/Outdoor championships), which Bou could match in the next 3 years, but I don't know of anyone in any motorsport as dominant at world level.
I got to see this one live - it was an absolutely fantastic event. Also the riders spent at least an hour before the event starts signing autographs and talking to fans, so they've already put in a long day before they even start the competition. Absolutely fantastic to see Benoit Bincaz getting a second well deserved podium in a row and his best result yet. He was definitely the happiest man in the building 🙂. The next question is will his spotter have to lose his moustache after this result assuming he lost his long hair because of the last podium 😛.
I'm pretty new to trials, when a rider has 3 marks, the announcer will say "one more mark will mean failure". What does that mean? I thought it was 5...

It's actually 36, 18 indoor and 18 outdoor
Holy shit that final section from Bou!! However, I think the happiest man in the building was Benoit Bincaz.
What a talented rider
Bravo Benoit pour ta 4ème place au X-TRIAL, on se verra le 11/01/2025 à Chambéry 👏

In the States, Chris Carr took seven championships in dirt track motorcycle racing.

Those sections are becoming ridiculous.
I'm pretty new to trials, when a rider has 3 marks, the announcer will say "one more mark will mean failure". What does that mean? I thought it was 5...
If a rider accumulates four marks during one section, that is an automatic fail, hence 5 points, also known as a fiasco or a handful. HTH
@kiwipewe8048 I guess I don't understand why 4 = 5. Is it not possible to finish a section with 4 points?
