The first podium of season!

On May 9, "Yakhnich Motorsport" took part in the first official race of the new season on the track of Mizano in the frames the Championship Trofeo Italiano Amotori. The competition fell on the day when Russia celebrated the 65th anniversary of its Victory in Great Patriotic War. Of course, it is a very important holiday for the pilots of the team, that's why Nadja Yakhnich and Natasha Lubimova performed with symbolizing this victory ribbons on their sleeves which they had specially brought from Moscow.

Victory Day was marked by a very happy event: the first international cup in the history of Yakhnich Motorsport was won! Natasha Lubimova took the 3rd place in STK-35.

Participation in Trofeo Amotori was an important new landmark in the history of the team. There were 39 sportsmen on the start grid and the Russian racers competed with men. A task set by the head coach Claudio Corsetti was not to win or record the best time but to continue work with adjustments of the new motorcycles. The main aim for that race was to finish. However Yakhnich and Lubimova managed to improve their results (both in time and positions) in comparison with Italian races they had had before: the pilots got the 17th and the 33rd positions in the qualification and finished the race 11th and 31st.

Nadaja Yakhnich started the race last but already in the first corners she managed to win back 8 positions. It must be mentioned that the rivalry was very serious in that race. During the whole race Nadja had to resist her rivals' constant attacks but she was able to hold her position. Natasha Lubimova started the race successfully and in the course of keen competition she finally managed to win back 6 positions at the end of the race! Our pilots had very tight finishes: time gap between them and their closest rivals was just some thousandths of a second!

The head coach Claudio Corsetti was very glad: "Our girls did well! I and the whole team are satisfied with the results we have achieved! These are fruits of our hard training work which will be continued at the next stage in Vallelunga on May 23.We hope for the further improvement of our positions!"
