MotoE: The Brazilian is back on top in style with two from two as drama hits for Casadei, Mantovani and Ferrari in Catalonia.
RACE 1
After a fantastic battle at the front, Eric Granado (LCR E-Team) fended off the challenge of Lorenzo Baldassarri (Dynavolt Intact GP) and Matteo Ferrari (Felo Gresini MotoE) to clinch victory in Barcelona, his first of 2025.
Granado’s teammate Mattia Casadei crashed out at the final corner on Lap 1 to see his championship lead go at the end of Race 1, as Alessandro Zaccone (Aruba Cloud MotoE Team) and Nicholas Spinelli (Rivacold Snipers Team MotoE) rounded out a top five that was split by just over half a second.
RACE 2
Race 2 was a belter; Spinelli got a blistering start to lead from P7 on the grid whilst behind, there was a crash for Andrea Mantovani (Klint Forward Factory Team) and Tibor Erik Varga (Rivacold Snipers Team MotoE) at Turn 4. The drama continued as on the penultimate lap, Ferrari crashed at Turn 10 from the lead battle, giving Granado a clear run to double up and rocket back into title contention. Behind, Spinelli bagged second whilst Casadei was promoted to third after a time penalty for Baldassarri who had repeatedly exceeded track limits.
Seven riders are now covered by just 23 points with four races and two rounds remaining; who comes out on top is anyone’s guess but one thing that is guaranteed is more drama next week at Misano!
