On Sunday 17 May, the Red Team took part in the Flames first round of the long-awaited trophy STK. E 'duty, so we do it now, thank the managers of the track for the whole' commitment reserved for us in preparing a path that, until a few days earlier, was quite inagibie. Special thanks Fabio also "Bazzi bazzo Racing" well known organizer of the trophy. Without a duty, now comes the pleasure to tell you about this wonderful day. Proceed along the road to Bergantino, long, straight and boring ... Then here that appear to 'horizon of the Duchy of Ciccio and Talented Santino. So Yay! Here it is! The caravan of motocross is the first stimulus of fun from start to dance. From a distance you see the color of the track which seems to be dark, wet alias, so hopefully in a nice "pose" that never hurts! When you arrive you download the bikes in the 'pre-race euphoria of jokes and laughter. This is why the pilots begin to study the practice track, set the suspension to your liking and check the uncertainties of the vehicle. Alright apparently. Meanwhile, Alex shows off his new kit lounch control the 450 ... It seems possible, therefore, he the man to beat! But, one thing at a time. Did the rounds of tests and also had widely expected the laggards (!?!) We are ready for the first leg of this second edition Trophy STK.
After about an 'now it is again time to turn on the engines, so get ready goggles, helmet, boots and of course those things are even better (we look good in making them public) in the first leg of the bike that could function better (the secrets of every pilot does not say).
the gate then enters the 'previous order of arrival and take a position, and eye Cross seems to see the first round ... The track has dried up and in while it is more difficult for everyone to decide the path and dare to overtake.
Just time to warm up the engine that will raise the cartel of 15 seconds. Time is limited ... 5 seconds, go! Fast towards the parties' funnel! A problem delaying the departure of Marcello: he had put it too close to the gate, falling, slammed against the front tire and he did lose a few precious moments. Trouble on the whole just as the third corner is already in seventh place in the great comeback. Henry Esni, stands in front of everyone by managing the power of his KTM but then ends up in the middle of the group and lose speed. The group
head is once again: Simone with his Honda 250 4 stroke followed by rider of Team Red Flames David Varan then Gianluca with his Suzuki 450. Artio part well and aims to embarrass the Veronese on yellow Hamamatsu. But c 'is also Santino that this time does not leave room for the' insecurity and slingshot ahead of Omar, Mirko Artio and then dictates the pace.
Ciccio other hand, is at loggerheads with Marcello, who pursues him, not allowing him to take too much advantage. Just behind Alex, author of a departure this time the most brilliant but also a style of leading the race aimed at resistance. No accident that the detachment of the two with the 125 is always less.
The first group pulls the other, but a crash involving Omar which is flanked on both sides of Arts and Mirko, who touched him, and then falls again to lose position on location. End, unfortunately, because of the last bent handlebar.
Behind the duel is between grace and Esni. Latter 'test several times to give trouble to the Honda Pilot but there' s nothing to do, our "Grazianone" Hold on and cross the finish line first.
The race is so over, fortunately without the 'help of the nurses in the Mobile First Aid (which thanks anyway for the' effort and patience more than anything else!).
The ranking is as follows:
1) Simone pts. 47
2) Varan 45
3) 42 Cristofori
4) Artioli 34
5) Santino
30 6) 29 Mirko
7) Marcello 29
8) 28 Omar
9) Alex M. 26
10) Esni

12) 17 Ari
13) Mauro M. 10
