MANNINI WINS HIS FIRST MOTO IN EMX125 AND GOES ON THE PODIUM!

Pietramurata (TN), 12-13 April 2025-The Arco di Trento cyclamino has once again hosted a stop of the world/European. A weekend with the two -sided weather, sun on Saturday and cloudy with rain on Sunday, gave us another piece of history to remember for the team and for the TM Moto.

Niccolò Mannini won his first career race in the European EMX125 then climbing the second step of the podium. A sunny Saturday greeted the whole caravan of Team and drivers who arrived at the Cyclamen, including our two drivers Niccolo Mannini and Julius Mikula riding their TM.

Niccolò got the fourth half of his group in qualifying by earning a good place at the gate. Julius in the qualifying heat started very well but then he gradually lost positions and halfway through the race he had to withdraw for a technical problem.

On Saturday afternoon in the first heat of the EMX125 Niccolò left as often happens to everyone and in the first bars he took a good margin of advantage over the whole competition. After half of the race he was taken up by Bellei, the two hired a very nice duel but in the heat of the moment they touched and went to the ground. From Li Niccolò he tried to remain hooked to fourth place in the final laps he suffered the attack of other opponents who made him close in 7th place. In the second heat on Sunday morning at the start, the script was repeated, great departure and command of the race obtained. This time Niccolò gave Botta first to Faure attacks and then Bellei to go and win his first heats of European Emx125! With this victory he also climbed to the 2nd step of the GP podium and is now 3rd in the championship ranking a few points from those who precede it.

Julius had an arduous task starting from the worst position at the starting gate given the last place of the Saturday qualification. But in the first heat he managed to shoot over the twentieth position. After some drivers found himself in 14th position on the fifth lap but now the rest of the group that preceded him had run away. In the race two things went similarly, this time Julius was more in the heart of the group by fighting to keep positions that would allow him to go to points. At the finish he closed in 15th position. After this test in the GP ended in 15th place overall and now occupies the 16th position in the MX2 World Cup. Next weekend we return to the track for the Switzerland GP with both our drivers for the sixth test of the MX2 World Cup and the fifth of the European EMX125.

Niccolò Mannini: “A decidedly positive weekend. In the first heat I was in the head of up to three quarters of the race but then a contact with another driver made me lose important positions for the GP, I arrived seventh with many regrets. On Sunday I was really angry and I transformed everything into office to do well. Fortunately I went to the head immediately and I no longer gave it up to the finish, resisting the attacks of my opponents. The first victory of Manche in the European 125 but a little sorry because I could also win the GP. I thank all the team, the TM and all the people who help and support me. See you in Switzerland ”.

Julius Mikula: “The MXGP round of this weekend in Arco di Trento brought both challenges and positive feedback for me. The qualification race on Saturday I had an excellent start, leaving the gate in second position. Unfortunately, on the first lap I arrived short from triple and I damaged my front wheel. Some turns later, a technical problem forced me to withdraw from the race. due to the withdrawal of Saturday, I had to start from the outside, which made things much more difficult. Despite the harsh choice of the gate and the demanding conditions, I managed to end up with good results, 14th in race one and 15th in the second heat. We continue to push and I can’t wait to run next weekend in Switzerland! “.
