Cairoli To Fill In At MXGP of Trentino

Tony Cairoli, the nine-time MXGP World Champion, will fill in for the injured Mattia Guadagnini at the MXGP of Trentino on April 12-13 in Pietramurata, Italy. Cairoli, who is already one of the Ducati lead test riders, will race alongside current team rider Jeremy Seewer at the Italian Grand Prix after Guadagnini was injured in a training crash last week in Sardinia

 

Antonio Cairoli will fill in for the Ducati Factory team at the MXGP of Trentino on April 12-13.

“I enthusiastically accepted Ducati’s request to race in MXGP at Pietramurata as a replacement for Mattia Guadagnini, to whom I extend my best wishes for a speedy recovery,” Cairoli said. “Even though I wasn’t expecting to return to racing so soon this year, I will use these few days that separate me from the Trentino GP to train and be in the best possible condition on 12 and 13 April. It will also be the perfect opportunity to greet all my fans and Ducati’s fans on the occasion of the launch of the production Desmo450 MX”.
