For you all information on the racetrack, the event program, the public utility and much more.

moto3-01Sixth round of the Motogp World Championship for the Ongetta Rivacold Racing Team sponsored by Ac Rolcar: we are in Italy, at Mugello circuit for one of the “hottest” weekend of the season. Niccolò Antonelli, author of the pole position in the last round at Le Mans, is ready to fight at home track, in front of the Italian public. Last year Nicco was one of the protagonist, both in free practices and the race. The young rider of Cattolica, crossed the finishing line in sixth position, after having fought for the podium till under the checkered flag. His teammate Jules Danilo, is looking forward to redeem himself after the hard Gran Prix of France. The young French rider wants to come quickly back to the top ten, position affordable for him.

Niccolò Antonelli: “Mugello is a track I really like, technical and fast. Here it will be important to work well. At Le Mans we did the pole position but we were less determining and concrete during the race. Here, we will try to be more aggressive in the race, which is the most important thing. Fighting with the group and being fast and competitive from Friday“.

Jules Danilo: “I am looking forward to come back on track. I really like Mugello and last year it was not bad here but this doesn’t mean it will be easy. I am still a little bit painful after the crash in France but I trained a lot this week, I came back on the bike twice without any problem and this is positive”.

 

AFTER RACE

moto3-01An amazing race for the Ongetta Rivacold Racing team at Mugello circuit. Niccolò Antonelli and Jules Danilo have been protagonist of an incredible recovery. The rider of the VR46 Academy, who started from the twenty-second position on the grid after having missed most of the qualifying yesterday, closed the Grand Prix of Italy fourth, close to the podium, while the French rider, born in Milan, crossed the finishing line in the eleventh position. A correct strategy and not any mistake allowed both riders to get points which are important for the classification and the mind.

 

Niccolò Antonelli: “I am really happy of this fourth position, if someone told me that yesterday, I would have signed it immediately. In the first part of the race I had difficulties but I decided to recover with calm, without risking. I were in the group ahead just few laps to the end but we missed the podium. Anyway, I would say that twenty-second in the grid and fourth in the race is a great result. I had fun, I thank everyone and now we go to Barcelona happy”.

Jules Danilo: “It has been a strange race, but with a positive result. During the week end I had no feeling. At the beginning of the race I was not able to go alone, then I started to have progress and at the end I closed eleventh, by getting important points and feeling confident for the future. Now we go to Barcelona, ready to fight again for the top ten”.
