[vc_row disable_background_image=””][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]A memorable weekend for the Beta Tools SpeedRS Team at the Catalan GP, highlighted by an outstanding second-place finish for Celestino Vietti and Luca Lunetta\u2019s first Moto2 top-10 result.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vietti confirmed all the potential he had shown since the opening sessions of the weekend. Starting from pole position, the Italian rider immediately took the lead of the race, setting a very strong pace and leading the field for most of the 21 laps around the Catalan circuit. Only in the closing stages, with three laps remaining, a sudden drop in performance prevented him from defending against Gonzalez\u2019s attack, forcing him to give up the lead. Celestino still fought until the chequered flag, securing a valuable second-place finish that also moves him up to third in the overall championship standings.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was also a positive weekend for Luca Lunetta, who achieved his best result of the season. Starting from tenth on the grid, the Italian rookie managed a long and demanding race with great composure, recovering positions after a less-than-perfect start. Lap after lap, the #32 rider showed increasing confidence with the Boscoscuro bike, eventually finishing ninth and securing his first top-10 result in the intermediate class.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Beta Tools SpeedRS Team will be back on track already on Tuesday for an official test day, an important opportunity to continue development work ahead of the upcoming rounds of the season.<\/span><\/p>\n

CELESTINO VIETTI #13: P2<\/b>
\n<\/b>\u201cI\u2019m very happy for myself and for the team because we worked really well throughout the weekend. It\u2019s a shame to lose the race in the final laps, but Manu managed the tyres better and had something more at the end. Now we\u2019ll make the most of the test, working on a few details to arrive at Mugello \u2014 which feels like home for me \u2014 even more motivated and ready to do well\u201d.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

LUCA LUNETTA #32: P9<\/b>
\n<\/b>\u201cI\u2019m very satisfied with this first Moto2 top 10 finish. We ended the race in ninth place and gained a huge amount of experience. It was a long race, but we improved a lot throughout the weekend and the team did an amazing job. I\u2019m also happy with the progress I\u2019m making riding the Boscoscuro, a bike that I\u2019m getting to know better session after session and race after race. I think we are getting closer to the front runners and, in terms of feeling, I\u2019m becoming more and more comfortable. We are on the right path, so thanks to all the team members and our sponsors. On Tuesday we\u2019ll have a very important test to try some new things, adapt even more and continue making steps forward. I can\u2019t wait to get back on track and arrive at Mugello even more fired up\u201d.<\/span><\/i>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
