Close to the top ten at Le Mans

Italtrans Racing Team faced at Le Mans Circuit the tenth round of the season, the Grand Prix of France, in which mid-morning rain meant that the Moto2 race was declared wet.

Took off from the third row of the grid with the 9th best time of the qualifying, Enea Bastianini immediately tried to gain positions, but a brake problem penalized his performance. Forced to a careful race in order to bring back home precious points for the championship, he managed to ended 9th, but a penalty of 3 seconds made him finish 11th. This result allows him to remain second in the standings, even more close to Marini, leader with an advantage of 15 points.

“Tough race. Unfortunately, I had problems with the brakes and I take a penalty because of a mistake. It’s a pity: the final position is not bad, but I’m not satisfied”.
