Provençal nights, the Mistral straight, back-to-back stints, and cover that keeps pace

icon Frais médicaux

A slide at Signes? Medical costs up to €150,000

At the end of the Mistral straight, bikes arrive at Signes at huge speed, and a slide there often means multiple fractures. Medical costs up to €150,000 pay for treatment, hospital stays and surgery after a bodily injury, whether it happens in qualifying, a night stint or the final hour.

icon Transport et rapatriement

From the circuit medical centre to your own front door

European, Japanese and other riders share bikes at the Bol d'Or. After an injury, assistance and repatriation at actual cost arrange the transfer from the circuit to hospital and then your journey home, whatever your country of residence.

icon Option compétition

One EWC round among several, the Competition option for the season

For an endurance rider, the Bol d'Or is one date in a season of long-distance racing. The Competition option covers you in official competition over these 24 hours and at every other event of the year, so you don't need new cover for each round.

icon Capital invalidité

After a night-time high-side, a lump sum of up to €200,000

At night, a cold tyre or an oil trace you didn't spot can trigger a high-side that launches the rider. Back, pelvis or hand injuries can then leave lasting disability. The permanent disability lump sum of up to €200,000 helps you face what comes next.

When night falls over Le Castellet, what changes on track?

At the Bol d'Or, speed isn't the only threat. Sleep debt builds between stints, temperatures drop at night and tyres take longer to come up to heat. The mistral can blow hard across the plateau and unsettle bikes through the fast sections. Privateer riders, less used to pit routines, are often the ones whose mistakes pile up.

Road racing doesn't stop after one September weekend. Track days, training camps and national endurance or sprint championships put riders on circuit for dozens of days each year. Our road racing insurance covers you in training and in racing, at home and abroad, whatever your country of residence.
