The 2009 Grand Prix World Tour drew to a successful conclusion recently at the Wind Brasil Fortaleza GP. A third place in the final event of the world tour was enough for Steve Allen (AUS0) to take the tour title; crowning a fantastic year that also saw him regain the World Title in Santa Pola, Spain.
Ross Williams (GBR83) improved his overall position in the tour by one place – finishing 2nd this year. Alberto Menegatti (ITA4) will be pleased with his consistant performances, posting a well deserved 3rd place. Fourth and fifth, holding their positions from 2008, were Jesper Vesterstrom (DEN111) and Wilhelm Schurmann (BRA999)
