Philippe ARESTEN – Owner Electric Motion:

“The entire team joins me in the desire and decision to continue the wonderful path we began with Gaël a few years ago. The main goal for the 2024 season was achieved with three magnificent podiums, including a superb victory in the last round, putting Gaël and his production model, the FACTOR-e, ahead of the best riders and both thermal and electric bikes in the highly competitive Trial 2 category of the FIM World Trial Championship.

Additionally, he has been competing all year with the top riders in the French Championship’s Trial Elite, all of whom race in Trial GP, finishing as the third-best French rider. His dedication, talent, motivation, and steady improvement have been supported by a fantastic technical team, including Didier, Mathieu, and Johann, along with team manager/friend/trainer Christophe and his supporter Alix, who together completed a very successful 2024 season.
