PONS CLASSIFIED P3 AND GRANADO P8 AT RACE 2 OF THE ITALIAN ROUND

It was an exciting yet dramatic second race at the Tuscan track on Sunday for the LCR E-Team. Pons was promoted to 3^rd after an exhaustive revision done by the FIM Stewads. Brazilian rider Eric Granado classified 8^th.

Starting 9^th on the grid, LCR E-Team rider Miquel Pons produced an outstanding comeback and was fighting for the top positions throughout the race but unfortunately, he was overtaken just before crossing the checkered flag in 4^th position.

Eric Granado, had qualified 4^th on Friday, he did a good start but lost some positions due to Mattia Casadei’s crash at the very beginning of the race and was unable to recover. He finished the race in 7^thposition but got demoted to 8^th.

The changes of position applied by Race Direction due to yellow flag penalties leave the team with a bittersweat taste as Miquel Pons missed the parc fermé and Podium but classified 3^rd and Granado lost one position.

Join the team for the next round of the FIM Enel MotoE™ World Cup at the historic TT Circuit Assen right before the MotoGP summer break, June 24-26.
