EXCITING CONTENT
“
I decided to participate in the WorldSBK Championship because it has always been my dream and I took this opportunity thanks to Motocorsa . This Championship will allow me to grow both personally and professionally . I think I am a calm person and determined in achieving my goals . I am a person who loves being in company and I hope that during the Championship we can have the public back in the stands and in the paddock . At home I like to play sports in general and love to go for walks with my two dogs . And being with my family and riding a dirt bike . In five years ? I hope to be one of the most important riders in the WorldSBK category .”
Lorenzo Mauri , Team Principal “ I signed Axel for two reasons in particular - the first linked to his young age and the second because I saw in him the desire to grow . Why not combine my experience as an ex-rider and team manager with his desire for growth , just as it should be at his young age . As a team manager I don ’ t focus on research or even identifying possible weaknesses . I focus on strengths . This evaluation is given after six days of testing . I can say that his strengths are : good working method , calmness and serenity and above all a good approach with the team , with all team members . We are very focused on this . For the 2021 objectives we don ’ t have to do anything but stay focused and grows every gearshift , lap-after-lap , working day and night to find a bike that allows Axel to express himself . It is the only thing that matters . As a first year , our goal is to concentrate on collecting as many points as possible but the key aspect is to constantly grow . So we are not aiming to stay in the top 10 at the beginning of the Championship but we would like to return to the top 10 in the races towards the end . Who knows , even in 2022 ? Let ’ s not forget that Axel is only 21 years old and must have all the time to grow he needs .”
