Assen met expectations completely and became an important reference point! Yakhnich Motorsport has already won the podium in Assen in 2012 and returned to win. And they did it with Sam Lowes.

TT Assen Circuit is one of the most technically difficult tracks in the calendar of the STK-600 class. 

Yakhnich Motorsport has done a great qualification in Assen: Sam Lowes took the pole-position and Vladimir Leonov took the 7th position just as a year ago when he had got his first podium. 

It was raining and cold as the weather forecast promised. The rain had begun when the session of Free Practice of the STK600 started.

Эlixir would become a partner of the Russian team of the Eni FIM Superbike World Championship - Yakhnich Motorsport.
