In Albacete we had an exciting and funny race weekend. As we mentioned in our previous post, our rider Ricieri Luvizotto arrived to this race without knowing the track and without any experience riding a Moto2 bike. In the CEV (Spanish Championship) the level is very high, so this race was a serious challenge for him. On Friday on the first practice we were lapping in 1:40. On saturday on the first qualify Ricieri la

This weekend we are in Albacete racing the penultimate CEV (Spanish Championship) Moto2 race of current season, with young (19 years) Brazilian rider Ricieri Luvizotto, riding our BOTT M212. This season Ricieri has been racing the CBR 600 F cup in Brazil with a spectacular resoult. He won the championship, winning all the races and taking all the pole positions. Here in Spain the resoults will be quite different for

During last two weeks we raced the 2 last CEV rounds (Valencia and Jerez) with the BOTT M211 and David Tirado as rider. As last year we raced integrated in the MEDES team. We also had Lambea as sponsor, this has been a great help in this financial crisis times. Despite the final results were not very good, we are happy about these 2 races. It is a pity that both were in wet conditions, because this season we made les

We arrived to Jerez with very few kilometers of pre-season (just one test), but also with a strong desire to achieve a good resoult. The bike had a new bodywork painting that make it look more agressive. In Friday F1 and F2 trainings we already saw that we were quite far from the head laptimes, although Antonio Gallardo was improving his lap times everytime he was on the tarmac. On friday our best time was 1:48,9. Sa

Last Tuesday and Wednesday (5th and 6th of April) we were testing in Jerez. It was our first test of the 2011 season, and the first time that Antonio Gallardo (our new rider) tested the BOTT M210. Most of the CEV Moto2 teams were also testing in Jerez, and also some of the fastest Moto2 riders in the World Championship, like Marc Marquez or Andrea Ianone. It’s always good to share the track with those guys. Tue

We started the new year in a very quiet mode in our blog, although we are not so quiet in Bottpower. We we are working hard to give shape to our 2011 race project in the CEV. With current economic situation things are beeing difficult and today we still don’t have defined the team we are going to race with, and neither the rider (or riders). But we didn’t want to finish January without publishing a post.

This past weekend we took another step forwards in our project and as you know we ran our first race. It was a bittersweet weekend because our race was cut short with a crash in the first lap, after a very good start where Alex jumped from 17 to 12. Curiously Bernat, Alex’s brother, also fell on the first lap of the race, in a crash that had nothing to do with ours. Fortunately Alex was not hurt in the fall, an

Last weekend we had in Montmeló the 5th round of the CEV 2009. Once again it was a very good weekend for the Kawasaki Palmeto team because Kenny Noyes won the race in the Formula Extreme category, in a vibrant race, riding first and controlling his rivals through the pit-board. Congratulations Kenny!   :) Regarding Moto2 bikes, in Barcelona we had some news, the most important was the presence of a new machine, the l

Last Sunday we participated in the 4th round of the CEV (Spanish Championship) in Albacete. It was a good weekend for the Kawasaki Palmeto team in which I work, because Kenny Noyes was second in Formula Extreme. He also was the fastest in the Q2 and had the quickest laptime during the race riding in 1:30.305. In Albacete the moto2 bikes raced again together with the Extreme bikes. After the trainings the most general
