Mantovani on points despite a tricky start in Race 2 at Misano

Race Sunday for the Evan Bros. WorldSSP Yamaha Team, who took to the track for Race 2 at the Misano World Circuit "Marco Simoncelli". In a race marked - like the rest of the weekend - by great heat Andrea Mantovani once again took the points spot, finishing 15th.

After the Warm Up, finished in 15th position, Andrea took to the track for Race 2. At the beginning the Italian rider got off to a good start, but then had to cut the first corner due to chaos in the middle of the group, having to give up - due to a penalty - two positions on lap 7, slipping to 14th position. In the final laps Mantovani maintained his concentration, while managing the drop in tyres, taking 15th position and therefore the points zone.

Having completed the home round at Misano, the Evan Bros. WorldSSP Yamaha Team will be back on track in just under a month at the Donington Park circuit, in England, for round six of the 2023 World Supersport Championship.

Andrea Mantovani - P15
"It was not the race we were hoping for, but we have to focus on the positives. From Friday to today we have made steady progress, and even in Race 2 we conquered the points zone. We have to improve, and we hope to do that already at the next round”.

Fabio Evangelista (Team Principal)
"We started the weekend with the goal of getting into the top ten, which unfortunately we didn't manage to achieve. I liked the attitude of Andrea, who did not give up from the first to the last lap and put together an interesting pace. We are motivated to do better in the next rounds, where we will try to prove our worth".
