An incredibly intense weekend is approaching for the Italian Off-Road national teams and all enthusiasts.

BMX RACE WORLD CUP STARTS TOMORROW IN FRANCE

In Sarrias, France, the BMX Race World Cup kicks off with the first two events, followed by the third and fourth stages the following week in Papendal, Netherlands. Italy will participate in both trips with four athletes:

Francesca Jael Ferreira Cingolani – Montmelian BMX
Albert Groppo – BMX Creazzo
Marco Radaelli – CS Esercito
Martti Sciortino – BMX Ciclistica Olgiatese ASD

Head Coach Mattia Furlan: "The selected athletes have demonstrated, at the start of this season, that they can reach the finals in a complex competition like the World Cup. The back-to-back events in France and the following week in the Netherlands allow me to see various athletes in competition, beyond those called up today. The most important thing is that I perceive, even from those not selected, the desire to earn the Azzurra Jersey with a positive and highly committed attitude".

XCE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS – GAIA TORMENA CANNOT DEFEND HER WORLD TITLE
