Clement Desalle and Steven Frossard won the two 450 cc races at the prestigious Bulgarian Sevlievo motocross GP in the weekend.

Desalle, who races for the Rockstar Energy Suzuki team, claimed his fourth career victory this weekend, while Frossard, who is in his rookie season in the premier class with the Monster Energy Yamaha team, took his first win. Desalle and Frossard are currently tied with 47 points in the FIM Motocross World Championship .

"I am very happy and it is very cool to win, but this is the first grand prix and the season is very long," Desalle said before All About Bikes."I feel really good on the bike and the 450 suits me better," Frossard stated. He nearly claimed both wins in Bulgaria, but a last minute mistake in the second moto handed the victory to Desalle.

The Sevlievo track has won various awards over the years as the best organized event from the FIM.
