Toni Bou currently has 16 wins, four in a row, at Palau Sant Jordi. The women’s trophy, which will be held for the fourth time in 2024, has no other winner than Briton Emma Bristow. Both drivers are favorites to win the 47th UNIVERSAE Indoor Trial to be held in Barcelona on February 4th. But be careful, your rival is now ready and entirely capable of putting an end to your supremacy.

We expect a very tight and interesting year as the young drivers are more consistent and have a lot of room for improvement. That makes them even more dangerous. But this is even more motivating for me. ”
At the 4th Women’s Trophy, the only women’s indoor trial competition held in the world, nine-time women’s trial world champion Emma Bristow will aim for “4 out of 4” in Palau Sant Jordi Become.
“The Women’s Trophy is already a classic event to start the season and it’s where we want to prove we’re in good form,” said the Sherco driver. And of course, who wouldn’t want to win in Barcelona, under a cannon of light, in front of thousands of spectators? It would be great news if it was confirmed that zone requirements would be significantly stricter this year. I think we are ready to face a more difficult field, and with it the public will also be able to appreciate the evolution of women’s trials. A rivalry with Berta? I think it’s very good for the competition…and of course for the show! It will definitely be a battle for victory between the two, which is another reason to enjoy the women’s trophy. ”

F1 champion: “McLaren trusts both. But the champion is treated differently.”
Reigning Formula 1 world champion Lando Norris has been warned by his championship mate about the expectations his new status at McLaren will bring.
After his 2025 championship, Norris will start the 2026 season as world champion. The British driver will be the first McLaren driver to try to defend his title since Lewis Hamilton.
Damon Hill, who won the 1996 championship, recalled the mounting pressure. According to him, champion authority does not always mean a real advantage within the team.
“I think the team has confidence in both drivers (Norris and Piastri). But when you become world champion, you are automatically treated differently; there is additional authority,” Hill explained.
“When I moved from Williams to Arrows, the team said: ‘We have a world champion.’ They thought I knew something special. But that authority is sometimes exaggerated. I didn’t know everything and I certainly didn’t know how to design cars.”
Hill emphasized that the true power of a champion lies not in technical knowledge but in leadership and team interaction.
“I worked with experts like Patrick Head and Adrian Newey; they were the ones who knew where to go. And the driver’s role is to be a leader and inspire the team,” Hill concluded.
