Dopo la bellissima esperienza oltreoceano in AMA SBK con la MV Agusta ed il Team Ferracci, l'aretino Luca Scassa torna in pianta stabile in Italia.
Il ritorno del talento toscano nella patria terra è avvenuto grazie alla lungimiranza del Presidente Claudio Castiglioni e del suo Staff. La Casa varesina ha voluto premiare gli sforzi, la fedeltà e la serietà di Luigi D'Esposito, titolare del Team Gimotorsports, supportato come sempre da un grande uomo di corse come Bruno Sacchi e dalla sua azienda di ricambi moto.
MV Agusta fornirà due moto 312R SBK in versione 2008 totalmente sviluppate dal reparto esperienze della Casa stessa e Gimotorsports metterà a disposizione la logistica ed i meccanici che lavoreranno seguendo le indicazioni dell'Ing. Andrea Goggi, Direttore Tecnico di MV Agusta, dell'Ing. Cesare Fani, responsabile attività corse e sviluppo SBK della MV Agusta e di Matsumoto "Machi" Kazuhiko in qualità di capomeccanico.
Le due moto saranno pilotate da Luca Scassa e prenderanno parte a tutto il Campionato Italiano (C.I.V.) Superbike e si cercherà di partecipare ad alcune tappe del Campionato del Mondo.
Visti gli ottimi risultati ottenuti nel finale di stagione dalla moto pilotata da Badovini nelle ultime due gare (Team Gimotorsports) e da Luca Scassa nell'ultima tappa del CIV SBK, la Casa ha deciso di sviluppare la 312R in ottica futura per una eventuale partecipazione in pianta stabile nel Campionato del Mondo SBK.
Sempre lo stesso Gigi D'Esposito ed il suo Team Gimotorsports saranno la struttura che seguirà tutte le moto del Challange Brutale in accordo con la stessa MV Agusta fornendo l'assistenza tecnioca a tutti i 36 piloti del Campionato. Grandissimo è l'interesse che sta ruotando intorno a questo Campionato che presto vedrà sensibilizzate tutte le Concessionarie interessate. Le richieste di piloti interessati stanno davvero fioccando.

Un secondo Team prenderà parte al CIV SBK sempre con la MV Agusta e sarà il Team Factory Superbike di Learco Ghelfi. Le moto non saranno ufficiali come quelle con cui correrà Scassa, ma sarà un team comunque riconosciuto dalla Casa Madre che ha ottenuto di poter sperimentare materiale in proprio. Su una delle moto di questo team correrà Maurizio Prattichizzo che sale dalla Superstock 1000 dove ha sempre fatto vedere cose egregie.


 
Race result Top Ten For Finnegan and MV Agusta >
Written by Barry Symmons on November 17, 2007 at 03:11

Well that’s it; it’s over a thrilling race for the thousands of fans who flock to this most impressive event that is the Macau Grand Prix. MV Agusta have a top ten finish in one of the toughest racing environments in the world, heat, humidity and against the very best Superbikes in the world from the world’s premier race series the British Superbike Championship. Never mind the rest the BSB is the best and our MV without traction control, sophisticated electronics the only non Japanese bike in the field from a little factory by a beautiful like in Italy has a top ten position.

Steve Plater won he out foxed, out road, and out smarted the opposition his AIM Yamaha was every bit the match for McGuiness’s Honda. He led from the front letting the Honda past and observing and then passing at will, he controlled it magnificently. Michael Rutter was a little unlucky he was closing on the leaders in 3rd at a great rate and was taking the Austrian Hinterrider with him, when at the notorious Lisboa corner he was sent up the slip road as he tried to out brake the endurance racer on the Yamaha. I was watching from the pit of one of the F3 teams and when the bikes are on all work stops. This team were Rutter supporters and were convinced that he was going to catch McGuinness, a great moan went up when Hinterrider I have to say sold him a dummy and forced the error on him.

Mean while MV Agusta has their much deserved top ten finish. Finnegan has his best finish in 4 visits the machine finished in excellent shape yet again on the roads, a credit to all back at Varese. The bike was voted by course commentator Keith Hewen as undoubtedly the most beautiful machine in the Paddock. Well done Varese well done Martin Finnegan well done the team. Roll-on the new bike!

1st Steve Plater
2nd John McGuinness
3rd Thomas Hinterreiter
4th Jeremy Toye
5th Connor Cummins
6th Mark Miller
7th Les Shand
8th James McBride
10th Martin Finnegan



 
Race day dawns at Macau >
Written by Barry Symmons on November 16, 2007 at 23:11

Well the final qualifying is over and luck was not completely with us. We had to spend about 25 minutes of the final hours qualifying setting up the new engine map, We then completed a further 9 laps to make a full race distance on 1 set of tyres. We put in a new tyre, not a qualifier, (we have only used race tyres and full tanks so far), then there was a nasty incident involving Guy Martin who slid straight into the concrete wall breaking both arms and causing yellow flags to be displayed it restricted us badly, however the session went well and Martin has qualified at the heard or the 3rd row in 10th place. He would have been on the second row as Ian Hutchinson qualified on McGuiness’s machine which should have been disallowed but never mind. In this mornings warm up he was 9th and gaining time on each run the machine has performed faultlessly since the 1st day dramas and we think that we will do well in the race.

It is extremely hot now some 2 hours to go the rider is hopefully sleeping at the hotel the bike is ready to go and so are we
