LORENZO SAVADORI: WITH THE PODIUM IN MONZA HE CONFIRMS HIMSELF
THE LEADER OF THE ITALIAN CHAMPIONSHP
The second round of the 2008 Road Racing Italian Championship
was held in Monza on Sunday May 4th.
 Lorenzo
Savadori, with the Aprilia of the Team RCGM, conquered a second
position that allows him to remain at the head of the championship
with an advantage of 9 points on the second classified.
After a good start, Lorenzo immediately went on the front
and at that time he began a fight with other three riders
that only ended under the chequered flag. Continuous changes
of position offered a great show on the very fast track of
Monza, with a great Savadori that managed to pass the finish
line in the first position in 9 of the 11 laps. Unfortunately
in the last lap Lorenzo was passed by Moretti in the corner
before the main straight and therefore he had to satisfy himself
with the second position, able to resist to the attack of
Ravaioli and Ferro, arrived only a few hundredths of a second
behind him. After the win at Mugello, Lorenzo went on the
podium once again and is therefore confirming himself the
leader of the championship.
Lorenzo Savadori: “It’s too
bad I didn’t win the race.. Unfortunately I lost the
final sprint because I had a contact with Moretti in the last
corner. Then he braked very hard and he overtook me, so in
the Parabolic I opened the throttle a bit sooner to try to
win the final sprint but I nearly crashed and that’s
why he arrived with an advantage of 5 tenths of a second on
me. I’ll take my revenge at Vallelunga, in three weeks!”.
The next race will be held at Vallelunga on May 25th, it
will be the third round of the 2008 Road Racing Italian Championship.
