The last race of the 2009 European Championship was at JetSki Village, near to Paris. Steven was leading the championship in front of Kevin Reiterer n°90. Christopher Courtois won the first moto. He is fast and the track didn’t let possiblities to fight and offer a show to the public. Steven finished second, and still leading the championship. He understood that the title was between Courtois and him. Kevin Reiterer did not succeed on coming back after a bad start. The second moto was led by Christopher Courtois, Steven was 3rd and still he was leading the championship because Reiterer was far behind Steven and did not take enough points. Courtois was far in front, and the second, De Sousa, try not to let Steven pass him. But finally, Steven passed, and managed to come back just behind Courtois, who won the moto. At the 3rd moto, Steven had a bad start again, and started the race 4th. Courtois is in front again and at this time, Steven could be 2009 European champion. He didn’t push too hard to avoid any mistakes and to make chances to win the title. Steven finished 3th. Christopher Courtois won the last moto and the week-end. Steven finished 2nd and won his 5th European title.
