POLINI ITALIAN CUP 2022
SCOOTER 100 BIG EVOLUTION OPEN:
In 100 Big Evo Open, races in name of adrenaline. On the first round, lightning quick start of the five protagonist riders. The fall of the Spanish Oliva at mid-race mixes the deck, slows down Tiraferri and paves the way to Paolo Birtele, first under the chequered flag before Filippo Corsi and Alessandro Blando.
In Race2 chaos in the first positions. Starnone makes a mistake and slips and involves Corsi, who can anyway start again. In the tough fight for the podium, Tiraferri passes Oliva on the last bend, who goes straight to victory, followed by Birtele.
The podium of the day:
Scooter 100 Big Evo Open: Birtele (94), Tiraferri (45), Corsi (34).
