GIVI AND LCR E-TEAM READY TO KICK-OFF 2021 SEASON IN JEREZ TEST
After the successful presentation of the MotoGP team, LCR is proud to announce that from today until March 4th, they will be testing the new Energica 2021 bikes with the new livery sponsored by GIVI.
Starting from the 2021 season, the LCR E-Team joins forces with GIVI, worldwide leader in production of motorcycle cases, bags, helmets and other accessories. The company, founded in 1978 by former World Grand Prix racer Giuseppe Visenzi, is a long-term sponsor of LCR, having started the partnership more than 20 years ago.
Joining the MotoE™ project, beside the historic commitment in the MotoGP™ class, seems a natural step for GIVI, which has always been a firm promoter of responsible motorcycle traveling, focusing on the safety of the rider and environmental improvements.
Giuseppe Visenzi – GIVI Founder
“We are pleased to support LCR also in the MotoE™ project, proudly displaying the GIVI colors on the LCR E-Team bikes as well. Strengthening the deep relationship that links us to the LCR Team since 1998, this operation has a very strategic meaning for us: looking at the near future, GIVI is very interested in exploring the electric motorbikes business, since we believe it will be a growing automotive segment and will be part of the daily mobility of thousands of citizens of the World”.
Lucio Cecchinello – LCR E-Team Principal
“It is a real pleasure for us to continue our sportive commitment in the MotoE category as well. Since the launch of the FIM MotoE™ World Cup, we’ve seen the opportunity to learn more about the different technologies integrated in the electric vehicles and acquire the best possible knowledge to manage it in racing competitions.We are also definitely proud to be part of this exciting racing platform which will undoubtedly deliver technical contributions about performance and safety to the future two-wheels electric vehicles.
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome our new riders Kevin Zannoni (2x Moto3 Italian Champion) and Miquel Pons (2x Spanish Supersport Vice-Champion) as well as to express our deepest gratitude to our main sponsor GIVI and all the others team partners, for their trust and obviously, their fundamental support.”
The first of two winter tests of the 2021 season, starts today and it will be crucial for the LCR E-Team as they have 2 young new riders eager to go on track. The first round of FIM MotoE™ World Cup, will also take place at the Circuito de Jerez – Angel Nieto on May 2nd. Stay tunned !
