Paulin
Gautier
Paulin began his obsession with two wheels racing BMX beginning at the age of six; winning multiple world championships by the age of 10 years old. At the age of 13 he would find his true calling after trading out pedals for a motor. So began his run into motocross.
Gautier would go on to make his debut at only 17 in the MX2 class of MXGP. Even with the little experience, he was constantly a podium threat and battling for wins in his first year.
As his career progressed he would build on to his resume capturing 5 MX2 world champtionships before moving up to big bikes in 2012. After moving up Gautier would take the championship in his first year and follow up that victory in 2013 with another commanding champtionship in 2014 MX1 class.
Fast forward to 2017 and Paulin is still hard on the gas, moving his competition out of the way and racing with the intensity that makes him a part of our Syndicate. We are pumped to have him on board the Shift team!

MXGP OF PORTUGAL 2018 | 14/04/18
The 2018 FIM Motocross World Championship made its way to Portugal this weekend for Round 5 of the series at Crossdromo Internacional de Águeda.
Despite heavy rainfall and warnings of inclement weather throughout the weekend, conditions ended up nice and offered a great venue for some exciting racing. After a bit of a tough weekend results wise in Arco, HRC's Tim Gajser looked to get back to his normal stride in Portugal and Gautier Paulin continues to build on solid performances with the IceOne Husky team. On the MX2 side, both Calvin Vlaanderen and Bas Vaessen came into Portugal healthy and looking for strong results. The WMX class returned this weekend as well, and Courtney Duncan had her eyes on the red plate after scoring 2nd at the season opener last week at Arco. Unfortunately Max Anstie & Hunter Lawrence both missed this round as they are still recovering from injury.
Gajser was looking quick on Saturday and was 2nd fastest during timed qualifying with a 1:49.964. Paulin almost matched him, closely in 3rd with a 1:49.992. Later in the afternoon, Gajser secured 4th in the Qualifying Race, with Paulin a close 6th. Solid gate picks for the races on Sunday! In MX2, Vlaanderen was 6th and Vaessen 19th.
The "Kiwi Girl" Courtney Duncan started the weekend off on top of the WMX field by 2 seconds in Qualifying Practice. She got off to a great start in Moto #1, grabbing the holeshot and building a nice lead early on. When the checkers flew, she had led every lap and took a commanding victory by over 20 seconds. In Moto #2, Duncan didn't quite get the holeshot, but was 2nd at the end of the first lap. She held 2nd for the first four laps before making the pass for the lead on Larissa Papenmeier. The perfect day was complete as Duncan took the checkered flag and she now holds the Overall points lead! The WMX series will now go on a brief pause and will return to action at Teutschenthal on May 20th.
