Motul spices up party atmosphere

Motul
14 September

The Thai stage of the World Superbike Championship represented an important meet for Motul, title sponsor of the series and also of the event organised in the former Kingdom of Siam. The riders of the Superbike and Supersport categories put on a show as did Motul with many attractions to amuse some 80,000 fans who came to the Chang International Circuit grounds.

 

Motul proposed a booth with a DJ, product samples, hostesses and a rodeo simulator with a totally wild bull. The latter wasn't alive but wasn't virtual either. The game consisted in not being thrown off by this mechanical 'Red Bull'.

 

In the stifling Thai heat, the teams partnered technically by Motul enjoyed less success than in Australia. Xavi Forès couldn't do better than 11th of race 1. 'I didn't gel with the front of the bike and nearly fell several times.' The rider of the Ducati Panigale of Barni Racing

Team managed to push forward to 8th of race 2 and holds a promising 6th place in the championship.

 

MV Agusta Reparto Corse also went back to Italy with an 8th place in its bags, but Leon Camier didn't see the arrival of race 2.
