Summer 2025 track test at the Persico Circuit
Development, Tension, and Records at Persico Circuit: EMA#85's Ultimate Test! ⏱️🔥
My participation in the MotoGrest, organized by our friends at Circuito del Persico in Portomaggiore (FE), was much more than just a fun gathering. Alongside the recreational and training aspects that allowed me to spend great moments with friends, the event enabled me to perform a series of thorough tests, modifications, and upgrades to prepare the new bike for upcoming competitions.
My team worked day and night for two weeks in close collaboration with the track staff and the technical-mechanical crew of Team Motorland. The work concluded with absolute confidence in having built a truly competitive machine capable of standing out even in high-level championships.
Elite Track Duels 🚀
We wrapped up our testing phases by sharing the track with two outstanding riders competing in major championships: **Valentino Bruni** (Team Ingallati, S3 class in the "12-inch Italian Cup") and **Lorenzo Ventura** (Official Angeluss Team rider in CIV Moto3).
Together with them, we started out with warm-up sessions and shared valuable advice to properly tackle all the tests scheduled for the day.
Like There's No Tomorrow 🏁
The paddock was thick with tension: we wanted to do everything right, to prove our bike was up to the task. It was simply a matter of hitting the track, twisting the throttle, braking hard, not missing a single apex, setting the lap time... and doing it all **like there was no tomorrow!**
We started with a solid pace, but obviously, nobody was there to hold back. Lap after lap, the rhythm became breathtaking: the stopwatch clicked faster with every pass while we pushed every single margin to the limit.
Physical Limits and the Stopwatch Verdict 🏆
This allowed me to push right to the edge of my physical and mechanical capabilities. To give you an idea, it felt like completing **8 grueling qualifying sessions**. By the end of the day, I was fully aware of what I could demand from my bike, my body, and my mind.
As proof of how hard we pushed without holding back, the stopwatch — the sole undisputed judge recording every single lap — **rewrote the track records at Circuito del Persico across all small-wheel categories** (12-inch bikes), clocking an exceptional **31.221** that sets the new absolute benchmark!
I am not yet authorized to reveal the project we are preparing for the season, but I guarantee we will put all our effort and energy into bringing home the best possible results! ✊📱
