A THIRD PLACE FOR EMANUELE FACCHETTI
27 February 2017
In Lignano Pineta, as usual in this last three years, has opened the Enduro season 2017. Compared to previous years the race weekend has been characterised by the sun and the good weather but the real news this year has been the race day of Sunday in style cross country with two continuous hours and the requirement of at least three supplies.
The weekend of our rider Manuel Monni was not lucky like the loot of points gleaned definitely very poor but it in Lignano Pineta was raced the first two rounds of the Assoluti d’Italia di Enduro and the championship is still long. The rider of the Golden Flame is passed from 300 2T to 250 2T in the E2 class and obviously the fourth place on Saturday is worn a bit close to Manuel Monni because in many special tests has recorded the fastest time. On Sunday however Manuel is immediatly party very strong occupying the top positions but then had to surrender waving white flag.
Good race for the new rookie Emanuele Facchetti who climbed on the third step of the podium after a starring weekend. The young Junior rider has picked up a fourth place on Saturday, won his heat in the evening race on Saturday and ended the great weekend with an incredible race on Sunday.
