3rd round of the Challenge des Monos

The 3rd race of the Challenge des Monos will take place this weekend on the Croix-en-Ternois circuit (Pas-de-Calais). Pascal Di Marco will represent the Team Moto-Net colors alone, his teammate Benoît Lacoste remaining on the sidelines with his dislocated shoulder.

After Ledenon (read and Carole (read, the competitors of the Challenge des Monos will face each other again this weekend on the Croix-en-Trenois circuit, in Pas-de-Calais, for the 3rd event of the season.

"It’s a very nice little circuit, with very tight turns and a straight downhill", explains Pascal Di Marco on the Moto-Net Mobile n ° 95: "today it is falling from the ropes, but I will still driving for free practice, while waiting for qualifying on Saturday ".

As for the Moto-Net Mobile n ° 25, it will unfortunately remain in Paris this weekend, Benoît Lacoste having suffered a motorcycle accident earlier this week, fortunately without too much damage (dislocation of the left shoulder).

As usual, Olivier Desjours (n ° 1) should ensure the show at the head of the race, pursued with talent by Jean-Charles Chauchot (n ° 46), Alain Darre (n ° 6), Michaël Viravongsa (n ° 66) , Manu Pintor (n ° 9) or Yannick Darre who has never raced at Croix.

Monosport side, Manu Pintor still dominates the category after his two victories at Ledenon and Carole, but he will be in the sights of Patrick Massonet (n ° 60), Fred Juillot (n ° 34), Carlos Teixeira (n ° 19) and Frederic "Rahan" Grannet (n ° 23), all seriously determined not to give him the field free…

Answer Sunday with the two finals which will take place around 10:25 am (Final B) and 4:25 pm (Final A).

Finally, after the noticeable absence of the Southern readers in Ledenon, the Moto-Net Team hopes to have the pleasure of meeting the Northern readers this weekend to encourage Pascal Di Marco, and why not allow him to aim for the Final A !
