#CZEGP – NINTH AND TWENTIETH PLACE FOR THE HDR SPEEDRS TEAM AT THE CZECH GP
The HDR SpeedRS Team concluded the Czech Grand Prix at the Brno circuit with a ninth-place and a twentieth-place finish.
It was a challenging weekend for Celestino Vietti, who nevertheless leaves the Czech Republic with valuable points, strengthening his third position in the World Championship standings. After a less-than-ideal start, the Italian rider maintained a consistent pace throughout the race but was unable to latch onto the leading group. A couple of mistakes during the middle stages of the race further compromised his chances of making up positions, and he eventually crossed the finish line in ninth place.
It was an uphill race for Luca Lunetta. Starting from 17th on the grid, rider number 32 was unable to be explosive in the opening stages. Despite this, Lunetta completed the Czech weekend in 20th place.
With the Brno round now behind them, HDR SpeedRS Team is already focused on the next event on the calendar: the Dutch Grand Prix at Assen, scheduled for June 27–29.
CELESTINO VIETTI #13: P9
“It wasn’t an easy race today. I wasn’t fast enough to stay at the front and I made two mistakes that caused me to lose contact with the group. From that point on, I couldn’t recover. Still, we managed to bring home some points from a difficult weekend, and fortunately we’ll be back on track in just a few days at Assen with the chance to do better. Thanks to the whole team for their hard work over these past days”.
LUCA LUNETTA #32: P20
“It was a constructive Sunday. We completed the race and gathered important data to continue our work. From the middle of the race onwards, our pace was very good, and with the used tyre the feeling was excellent. It’s a shame about the first part of the race, where we lacked a bit of speed and explosiveness to fight for the points. We’ll analyse everything and see each other again in a few days in the Netherlands, even more motivated and determined. Thanks to the team for all their effort and to all our sponsors”.
