This second day started under raindrops. A busy and grey sky awaited us to never leave us.

Despite the changing and delicate conditions, our three riders set off shameless on the Magny-Cours track.

The GMT94 team arrived yesterday, Tuesday, at the Magny-Cours circuit. The installation went very well despite the continuous rain. The boxes and motorcycles are ready! This weekend promises to be an intense one, full of emotions and experience.

To open motorbikes racing gates is in GMT94 DNA. After a travel to Aragon (Spain), offered to four persons in April, GMT94 will give a pack for two with flight, car, and two nights in Qatar. Paddock access will be also delivered to the winners.

After a fight with the leading group, Jules Cluzel ends 4th of the World Supersport race in Portimao. After a great warm-up, Jules was aiming for a podium.

After 9 victories in 12 races, the leader of the French Supersport Championship, Maximilien Bau (20) will have a wild-card for the French Round of the World Supersport Championship in Magny-Cours ( September 27th-29th).
