Team HRC remains in first place ahead of the final round of the FIM E-Xplorer World Cup
Crans-MontanaThe action kicked off in Switzerland with the first race of the final round of the FIM E-Xplorer World Cup, and Team HRC experienced a day full of highs and lows on the track.
With a passionate crowd and an outstanding atmosphere, the day started with morning practice sessions and the qualifying round that would determine the starting positions for the riders in this decisive event.
Francesca Nocera, who had suffered a fall during practice the previous day, was unable to finish the qualifying round due to lingering pain from the crash. Despite the team’s efforts and her determination, the discomfort kept her from completing the session.
Tosha claimed the top spot in qualifying, securing his choice of position on the starting grid.
At 1:30 PM, the first of three races began. Francesca continued to experience pain from her fall and, although she couldn’t perform at her full potential, she managed to finish in 5th place, earning valuable points for the Japanese team and showcasing her fighting spirit on a challenging day. In contrast, Tosha delivered an outstanding performance in the first round. He had a strong start, maintained the lead throughout the race, and crossed the finish line in first place, adding 25 crucial points to the team’s tally.
The second race brought better results for Francesca, who secured 4th place, showing improvement despite the difficulties. Tosha, while unable to repeat his victory, still managed a solid 3rd place, contributing more important points to the championship.
In the third race, Francesca continued to struggle with pain and finished in 5th place once again. Meanwhile, Tosha remained competitive for the top spots and closed the day in 2nd place.
The atmosphere in Crans-Montana has been electric, with spectators fully engaged, creating an energizing vibe that spread to everyone present. The Swiss crowd cheered on the riders at every turn, and the Team HRC riders felt the support from the very start.
Tomorrow’s schedule will mirror today’s, with practice, qualifying, and three races that will decide it all in this thrilling conclusion to the World Cup. With three rounds already completed, the team is gearing up for the final day, knowing that every second on the track will be crucial in determining the championship. Both Francesca and Tosha are ready to give their all to secure the best possible result in this last round of the season.
A challenging first day in Crans-Montana. Tosha started strong in both the qualifying and the first race. However, in the last two races, he struggled to find the right feeling but still managed to finish second. Francesca, still sore from yesterday’s fall, hasn’t been able to perform at her best. It wasn’t the result we wanted, but there’s still one more day. We’ll fight until the end and continue defending our first place.
