Alford: plot twists GO GO! ABSOLUTE On the day of the June 7 STK trophy has arrived at the track Alford for the second round of the championship. The day started at the bar Bastia did not seem very promising, at least from the faces of some drivers, but fortunately it is just appearance!
Each competition has its new series of races but this is taking a strange turn: each time the meeting is in advance! Will work out who will sleep on the track the day before!
However, no more talk and come to the news of this second round of pure motocross.
arrived at the camp the riders begin to study the track, and especially observe the trajectories shows that the soil slightly wet and sticky. Hopefully in the mythical "pong", a friend of the two times above! But it is the time, the weather, which worries more than anything: clouds 's water s' roam around the track but fortunately only a few drops to 'start the first run.
these circumstances there is lost in the chatter and begin to immediately shift test useful for those who do not remember well the track or for those who really did not 'had never seen, stoic them! From
practice you can already figure out who points to the podium: Artio s' performs "scrubbatine" and show, instead Omar art on the sly but then the results will blow your mind. You can not say the same for Ciccio who picked up a nasty crash in which the stun throughout the race. Santino also seems to have a good feeling with the bike and the track (although the box is hiding something under the 'towel! ) And part Alex quietly in the saddle, this time, the 250 4S.
now we are running out of tests so the pilots are called to 'order for canon briefing. Everything is ready to go when it is completed the 'alignment behind the gate. Fabio "Bazzi bazzo Racing is ready to give the 15 seconds, while Marcello and Andrew watching the race on the jump of 'arrival helped by Mauro and Ari, flag-wavers on other jumps.
L 'adrenaline is sky high, lowers the gate, parties! Now the command is launched with Gianluca Suzuki 450, followed by Arts and Omar, 's a bit' spaced.
Part
well followed by Alex David (Varan) Santino and Ciccio. The brawl began after a few jumps it now Artio launches comeback, however, taking some risk in landing.
Just after crossing the paths between Alex and Varan which annoys the Kawasaki pilot then succeeding with a shot of brake in the corners and take short cut to the front.
you redistribute the podium positions: Artio passes first and stretching to Gianluca which is now at loggerheads with Omar in net recovery.
Unfortunately a driver slips and no longer able to turn his bike: KTM 4T Squoque just did not want to know! Finish in last place. The fifth lap
fatigue begins to be felt by pilots at each step setting Fabio hopeful that put the sign "SPEED 2". Ciccio
put Santino in the viewfinder but it makes the most of the qualities of his Honda 4-stroke and can always gain a few meters.
Highlights for the trio to head the arts in the first position dominates the race for a couple of laps but the party does not last as he wanted, Omar Gianluca ousted after the second step of the podium waiting for the right time and go to 'attack the leaders: it puts on the brakes, s' forces and say goodbye to the teammate in recovery curve from gaining ground and is now putting the first position to secure safe to rely on the fatigue of the pursuers.
The race however is not completely finished and between Esni Grazianone that duel at every turn, each of them would laugh and pass in front of 'more! It 's a fight to' last SGAS that shown by our riders! It will be the pilot on 'off the Austrian' hondista and able to pass even David Suzuki rider from Verona 250 4T.
Santino instead puts in 'final round even Alex. Bad luck for black Kawasaki that after a good start, lost two positions representing important points.
Ciccio grits his teeth and maintain a good margin from 'tracker, Esni, then cut with plenty of advantage. This concludes the first 12 minutes of unrestricted happiness race of the day because you give way to a deserved rest. After a
'now about the drivers have to pre-alignment in the' order of 'arrival of the first round and in the eyes of someone already stated the desire for revenge.
Varan Unfortunately, David is not feeling well and left the race, will not take place even at the gate. All ready for the 15 seconds ... 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 ... PARTIES rocket towards the 'funnel!
seem strange but the positions are almost identical to those of the first as well: the command Gianluca, then Arts and Omar. Something changes from fourth down everything for the benefit of the show. Still returns the duel Ciccio and Santino, the two had already shown proof shifts to the rivalry. Still brawl between Graziano and Henry (Asnicar) but this time gives way to the Honda rider. Omar began to climb again towards the top, seems really to have put the right gear on this day, and it's easy to earn Artio committed itself to annoy Gianluca. Then change the positions at the back: Ciccio stretches on Graziano while Henry is unable to contain the 'vehemence of Piron, number 11 in Kawasaki, which had hesitated in the first round to get under. Everything now turns to the benefit of the pilot Ktm, Graziano charge a bit 'tired and that is overtaking the deadly series of doublets in the sequence.
Squoque instead becomes insidious behind Alex but maintains the advantage and to halt any attacks by the "kappatiemme" 4T: the two are fighting side by side, fought with each off, but eventually the blue flag (to be chess) provides the fairest result: in front of Alex.
The trio head Gianluca lost yards because of a wrist broken-down, slips and close the race third in the same position in the first round. Great performance anyway! Omar
increasing load, already had made a miracle in the first round without training behind him, and then extends again on his pursuers and secures the most coveted cup. Followed by Artio, star of the race but betrayed by his forearms.
Day definitely not as preanticipato for Ciccio that fails to bring home important points and, a situation not dissimilar to Santino, who in this second round has found some problems with the forks of the bike. Good
the fourth Alex's place overall at last a glimmer of good fortune for our "Titan" of stamina!
Great performance for Graziano, among 'other things, ending the round "Supercampione" quietly smoking a cigarette even sponsored the fly by Mauro.
This concluded the second round of the Trofeo STK characterized by the "newness" of the track, it is the first time we went into the circuit in the province of Ravenna, and, unfortunately, on the absence of drivers such as Varan (sin the second run), Marcello, Ari and Mauro.
