2021 EnduroGP of France Friday Super Test in a nutshell:

Friday night Super Tests always have an awesome atmosphere in France and Langeac did not disappoint tonight. The long test (by usual standards) was a fast one but contained some technical sections, including a rocks-to-logs-to-rocks matrix which brought plenty of entertainment for the crowd.
Tradition dictates riders run in reverse order – Open class, Women, Youth, Juniors and then EGP senior classes – and it was a long time before anyone went faster than the impressive times laid down by the fastest Junior riders.
Matteo Cavallo was the first senior rider to do that before Thomas Oldrati laid down a marker and busted the two-minute barrier with a 1:59.05 lap. The wait was a long one but the Honda RedMoto rider remained the fastest on the night.
Only Brad Freeman and Jaume Betriu, second and third fastest, also dipped under two minutes while a lot of the big hitters made mistakes including Josep Garcia who finished 16th.
Bernat Cortes clocked the fastest time in the Juniors as the championship contenders, Pavoni and Macoritto, also fell foul to the rocks and finished 27nd and 22th respectively. Bernat clocked 2:02.64, quickest by the narrowest of margins from Antoine Criq and Jed Etchells – all three were separated by three tenths (the next three riders were seperated by one tenth).
French Youths kept the crowd happy on their 125s with Thibault Giraudon and Leo Joyon taking top two places ahead of Harry Edmondson – all were within the 2:07 bracket in this long Super Test.
Jane Daniels came out swinging at this final GP with a time almost four seconds faster than Laia Sanz with Mireia Badia third in the Women’s title fight.
Maxime Warenghien took another test win in the Open class, topping the scratch result ahead of Mark Szoke and Corentin Poutignat.
