DOUBLE PODIUM FOR FERRARI AT MUGELLO

Matteo Ferrari and Team MotoE FELO Gresini Racing scored a double-podium finish at Mugello with an exciting performance by the home hero #11, who was second at the line in race one in dry conditions and then third under torrential rain in the afternoon – at the end of an incredible battle for podium number two of the day. The results achieved today translate is an excellent number of points secured as Ferrari is second in the championship chase.

Alessio Finello, on the other hand, had a challenging Saturday. He struggled in race one and crossed the line 14th while in the afternoon he crashed out at the end of the encounter after coming close to a top-ten finish – which left a bitter taste in his mouth. MotoE will return to action from Friday at the Sachsenring. 

MATTEO FERRARI #11 (RACE1: 🥈; RACE2: 🥉)

The home race is always very exciting; I would have preferred to win at least one encounter but today we achieved the best we could, especially in race two, as the conditions were very difficult and we don’t have enough information in the wet with this bike, despite the tests we had at Jerez – which went really well. We still have a couple more important events this month, so we must do well and think about the championship run.”

ALESSIO FINELLO #72 (RACE1: 14th; RACE2: DNF)

“An unfortunate Saturday: in race one I made some mistakes in the first two laps, the pace afterwards was not bad but I had lot quite a lot of ground and finished with a disappointing 14th, as I knew our potential could have enabled us to finish higher. I was eager to make amends in race two, it was raining and I kind of like to race in wet conditions, I could have done well: conditions were quite tough though, I tried my best and reached the top ten, then I tried to push more to battle with Zaccone and crashed. My weekend finished this way, but we take the positives and move on; we will try to step up our game in Germany!”
