Footnotes

[edit]
  1. ^ The race was originally awarded to Tadiello before it was officially announced; following protests by FFVRC, the French federation, the race had to be recounted which revealed Tadiello was a lap behind Lecat when the race was over and he eventually was awarded the win although Ted Longshaw, the IFMAR president, was by then ejected from the premises by the circuit owner and the trophy was awarded to Tadiello by the circuit owner without IFMAR's consent.
