Triumph Under the Ozzano Stars: EMA#85 Claims Victory in the Teste di Casco Night Show! 🌙🏆
When passion calls and the organizational machine runs at full throttle, an incredible show is guaranteed. Emanuele Rossetti (EMA#85) hit the track for an intense and thrilling out-of-calendar night event — masterfully organized by the Teste di Casco group — under the floodlights of Ozzano Motor Valley (BO), facing a scorching circuit and a high-stakes format.
The event, passionately put together down to the smallest detail by Teste di Casco, followed a rigorous technical schedule: two free practice sessions, one qualifying session, and two races, with Race 1 finishing positions determining the starting grid for Race 2.
Free Practice: 43°C in the Ozzano Heat 🌡️
Action kicked off around 7:00 PM. The six competing riders faced a literal wall of heat as thermometers recorded record temperatures well above 43°C (109°F).
These extreme conditions made pushing to the limit exceptionally difficult, with lap times hovering roughly between 37 and 42 seconds.
Technical Parity & 160cc Test 🎲🏍️
The competition, designed by Teste di Casco to highlight pure rider talent, took place on random-draw 12-inch Ohvale 110cc single-speed bikes, ensuring a level playing field. During practice, Emanuele also took the opportunity to test-ride a 12-inch Ohvale 160cc with gears, sampling its handling and power delivery.
Superb Qualifying: 2nd Place with 37.206 ⏱️
Despite the climate hurdles, the evening smoothly organized by the group proceeded without a hitch. In the Q1 qualifying session, EMA#85 delivered a stellar performance, stopping the clock at 37.206 seconds to claim second place overall and a front-row grid spot.
Race 1: Tight Pacing and Leading Trio 🏁
The opening race (R1) started off with blistering intensity. The top three riders immediately broke away from the pack, locking horns in a fierce tactical duel. The narrow margins kept positions unchanged all the way to the checkered flag, finishing in their exact starting order.
Race 2: The Masterclass and Victory for EMA#85 🚀
As night fell, temperatures dropped by a few degrees, allowing riders and machines to perform at a higher level. Right from the first corner, the top two riders broke away from the chasing pack, dropping lap times by over a second.
Following continuous attacks by Emanuele against Paolo, the hard work paid off past the halfway mark: EMA executed a brilliant overtake on Paolo, pulled away cleanly, and crossed the finish line in first position! An incredible, hard-fought race true to the spirit and top-notch organization of Teste di Casco. Future outings on this circuit will surely see EMA#85 put all the lessons of this wonderful night to great use.
Fantastic Teste di Casco event: skill, strategy, and the top step of the podium! ✊🌙🏆
