Here we are, we have reached the summer break and we must say a few words on the last two races.
Lunetta is recovering quickly after the accident in Assen: the surgery done in the Netherlands went well, and was even judged perfect by none other than Dr. Costa. In the meantime, we had to find a replacement. I evaluated several options, and then…I followed my heart.
Thus, came Lenoxx-Jeronimo (just like the famous Apache chief), a young guy who impressed me, while I was walking around the paddock during a Rookies Cup race. Grown up in the Pasini Mini Project, young, determined, with fighter’s eyes. I can’t exactly explain what convinced me, but something was telling me: “him”.
Don’t look at the standings, there’s no need. Just focus on his progress: step by step, thanks to Marco Grana’s help, he was able to turn an immature and rough riding style into something cleaner and more consistent. Last Sunday he really showed that he can grow, we’re happy to have helped him improve and have had him with us on this short journey.
A special thanks to the Rookies Cup officials for lending him to us, and best of luck to him, we hope this is just the beginning.
I’m voluntarily skipping the part about the team’s results, the truth is, simply, there aren’t any. Or rather: they are not in line with the dreams I have always had for this team. But if there’s one thing we’ve learned over time, it’s to be patient. I don’t always like to rush, in fact… I know how to recognize when it’s time to wait. Because sometimes, waiting is the only way to get where you want.
We hope to have Luca back in time for Austria, my wish for you is some rest and refreshment: I hope you’ll manage to escape, at least for a while, from these 40-degree days of a burning summer. An adjective I really wanted to use to define our racing season.
