GREAT HITS


Extraordinary, limitless, perfect: it’s the sixth national title of Scooter 70 Evolution Open, conquered by Matteo Tiraferri after the titles won in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015. The definitive consecration of a boy who, after winning all on minibikes of Polini, proved to be a champion in this sector, since he moved to scooters, with Polini Team. To him, his passion for track races is a lifestyle, to grow professionally as a rider and a technician of Factory Racing of Bergamo. Last weekend, on the circuit of Pomposa, while rain was affecting qualifying practices in the morning and the hot sun affecting the races in the afternoon, Tiraferri was flawless. In all the remaining classes, all will be decided in the last race in Cervesina (PV) on the fast circuit Tazio Nuvolari.
