ANDREA VERONA È IL CAMPIONE DEL MONDO ENDURO2 2024!

Ce l’ha fatta! Cogliendo l’alloro con una gara d’anticipo, l’asso GASGAS Factory Racing Andrea Verona ha conquistato il titolo mondiale FIM Enduro2 dominando entrambe le giornate del GP del Galles. Avendo vinto tutte le giornate fin qui disputate tranne una in cui è arrivato secondo, Andrea ha corso una stagione quasi perfetta che gli è valsa il settimo titolo mondiale in carriera.

  • Verona è per la prima volta campione della classe Enduro2
  • L’asso vicentino e GASGAS sono al quarto alloro insieme
  • In Galles Andrea realizza l’ennesima doppietta in E2

Dopo essere passato alla GASGAS EC 350F e alla classe Enduro2 nel 2023, Andrea aveva chiuso la sua prima stagione in questa classe al secondo posto. Ora, con più esperienza all’attivo, il numero 99 ha dominato la E2 in questo 2024, conquistando 11 vittorie su 12 giornate di gara, e arrivando al penultimo appuntamento stagionale con ben 39 punti di margine. Se non è costanza questa!

Al GP del Galles, Andrea ha cercato di partire col piede giusto nel Super Test del venerdì. Purtroppo una piccola caduta lo ha rallentato, ma sabato Verona è subito tornato sui suoi livelli dominando tutte le Speciali della Enduro2 tranne una. Vinta la giornata con 59 secondi di margine, Andrea si è avvicinato in maniera decisiva al titolo 2024.

Impaziente di ripetersi la domenica, Verona si è imposto nella prima Speciale di Rhayader. Mantenendo la sua striscia vincente nonostante una caduta nel Cross Test del secondo giro, Andrea ha vinto 9 delle 10 Speciali portando la sua GASGAS EC 350F a 24 secondi di vantaggio sul più vicino inseguitore. Con questa vittoria Andrea si è anche assicurato la corona mondiale Enduro2 con una gara di anticipo, un risultato strepitoso per il velocissimo venticinquenne vicentino!

Con il titolo Enduro2 al sicuro, tutti gli occhi sono ora puntati sull’appuntamento finale del mondiale FIM EnduroGP, dove Andrea cercherà di contendere a Josep Garcia il titolo EnduroGP. Giù dal podio per un soffio nelle due giornate gallesi, Verona resta secondo nella classifica EnduroGP, e potete star certi che il nostro pilota darà il massimo nella tappa finale di Brioude, in Francia, il prossimo 13-15 settembre.

Andrea Verona: “Sono felice di aver vinto il titolo Enduro2 in anticipo! È stata un’ottima stagione e sono contento di aver vinto tutte le giornate tranne una. Questo era uno dei nostri obiettivi quest’anno, e ci siamo impegnati al massimo per raggiungerlo. Ringrazio il team GASGAS Factory Racing e tutti quelli che mi hanno sostenuto quest’anno. Di sicuro cercherò fino alla fine di rendere le cose difficili a Josep Garcia per il titolo EnduroGP!”
