The Portimão Recap: Resilience and Performance

The event on the Algarve’s rollercoaster-like track highlighted the team’s full potential, provided they can manage an increasingly competitive and high-pressure environment. Jeremy Alcoba confirmed his rise in the category, securing a solid seventh-place finish in Race 2. The Spanish rider, currently in the Top 10 of the world standings, demonstrated an extremely effective race pace, significantly closing the gap to the leaders and positioning himself as a potential podium contender for the upcoming rounds.

For Dominique Aegerter, the Portuguese weekend was a test of character. Despite a challenging Sunday marred by loss of grip, the two-time world champion demonstrated his usual grit, gathering crucial data to overcome recent technical setbacks. His experience remains a cornerstone for the project’s development, with the stated goal of returning his talent to the top positions where he belongs.
