Spanish Rider Toni Bou (Beta) will arrive to this Friday’s FITWC round in Marseille as leader of the series, after having won the opening round in Sheffield.
Apart from the five fixed riders competing all the rounds of the FITWC (Raga, Cabestany, Fajardo, Lampkin and Fujinami), Marseille also welcomes wild card riders Tadeusz Blazusiak (Scorpa) and Jerome Bethune (Beta). Toni Bou is the wild card rider invited by the local promoter.
Adam Raga faces the second round of the series with the same self-confidence as always: “I feel very confident about this Grand Prix because what happened in Sheffield was just due to a problem with the grip of my rear tyre. I know I am in very good shape and I still consider myself having all the chances to take the World Title. I reckon on taking the victory in Marseille”.
