Competing in Italy’s premier national enduro championship, Kyron Bacon and Bruno Mirò faced two demanding days of racing. As is tradition, Saturday featured four laps with three special tests per lap, while Sunday’s schedule consisted of three laps. The action got underway with Friday evening’s Super Test, offering a first taste of what the riders would face over the weekend. After challenging the competitors on Friday, the Extreme Test also opened both race days before giving way to the Cross Test and the Enduro Test, which ultimately decided the overall classifications.
Kyron Bacon arrived at this important event carrying the momentum from the previous EnduroGP round. The Tasmanian Devil got off to a strong start, proving solid and consistent throughout the special tests. Running comfortably inside the overall Top 20 all day, he finished Saturday in 18th overall and eighth in class. On Sunday, Kyron further improved his feeling with both the special tests and his Kawasaki, setting faster times that earned him 13th overall.
Bruno Mirò continued his development in the enduro discipline, approaching only his second enduro event with great professionalism and maturity. The Spaniard was not intimidated by the demanding special tests and, making the most of his Kawasaki's potential, successfully completed both race days, finishing 12th in the class reserved for foreign riders.
Enrico Garelli – Team Manager:
"We're leaving Pianello with a lot of positives to take away. Kyron once again showed both speed and consistency, improving throughout the weekend and getting faster with every test. I'm also delighted to have Bruno back racing in our team. He showed real potential, and we've got a strong foundation to build on. Now our full focus turns to the French Grand Prix."
Kyron Bacon:
"It was a positive weekend. I'm pleased with the pace I showed on Sunday and with how I felt on the bike. Now it's time to put my head down and work hard ahead of the World Championship round in France."
Bruno Mirò:
"I'm really happy to have had the opportunity to race in the Campionato degli Assoluti d'Italia. I made a few too many mistakes on Saturday, which affected my times, but on Sunday I was able to ride much better and finish inside the overall Top 25. The Extreme Test was particularly challenging, but I managed it well. A big thank you to the team for all their invaluable support."
The sixth and penultimate round of the EnduroGP World Championship will take place on July 17–19 in Saint-Agrève, France.
