Enea Bastianini, Fabio Di Giannantonio and Sam Lowes receive a warm welcome in DEL CONCA area at CERSAIE exhibition
Gresini Racing Team Moto3 riders Enea Bastianini and Fabio Di Giannantonio, along with Team Federal Oil Gresini Moto2 rider Sam Lowes and team manager Fausto Gresini met yesterday the many fans who attended the DEL CONCA area at CERSAIE, the International Exhibition of Ceramic Tile and Bathroom Furnishings which takes place every year in Bologna.
For DEL CONCA, main sponsor of the Gresini Racing Team Moto3 and Official Sponsor of Team Federal Oil Gresini Moto2, the meeting represented a good opportunity to draw up a balance of a successful season, looking forward to the flyaway triple-header of races in Japan, Australia and Malaysia that will precede the Valencia grand finale.
Before meeting the fans to sign autographs and take pictures, Fausto Gresini and the riders remembered with Paolo Beltramo the highlights of an exciting 2016 season. After fighting for victory in the recent Aragon Grand Prix, both Gresini Racing Team Moto3 riders are preparing for a final part season that promises to be even more exciting: in the last four races Enea Bastianini will try to claim the World Championship runner-up title, while Fabio Di Giannantonio, who is enjoying a stunning debut season, will try to win the “Rookie of the Year” trophy.
Together with the two young riders racing in the lightweight class, Sam Lowes spoke about his recent dominant win in the Aragon Grand Prix, the English still fighting for the World Title in the intermediate category.
PAOLO MULARONI (Ceramica Del Conca President)
“Cersaie represents the most important exhibition of the year to introduce new products and to put the basis for the near future; for us this year it’s an even more emotional event because it’s the first edition without our father Enzo, who recently passed away. In this period we are also putting in a strong effort from the production point of view, with huge investments to increase our production capacity and to expand our range of products, both in the United States and in Italy. Investing in Italy makes us extremely proud, because it means facing a challenge in a very competitive environment. We like to face new challenges though, just like the Gresini Racing team, with which this year we started a very successful partnership. We are very happy with how the season is going, both in Moto3 and in Moto2, and the upcoming races promises to be even more exciting, so we will follow them with great expectations!”.
FAUSTO GRESINI
“It was very nice to be guests of Del Conca in such a prestigious event as the Cersaie in Bologna: many fans were able to meet our riders and it was a very interesting meet&greet, organized with great passion and commitment by the Mularoni family, as always. The 2016 season is giving us great satisfaction and the recent Aragon Grand Prix it’s a great example, with two pole positions, two riders fighting for victory till the last lap in Moto3 and the stunning win with Lowes in Moto2. These results, that we are getting thanks to the valuable support of Del Conca, are proving that the Gresini Racing team is an absolute protagonist in the lightweight class and also in the intermediate category. I wish to thank once again the Mularoni family: events like this are giving us a great confidence boost ahead of the final part of the season, in which we want to continue to collect great results together!”.
