The brand new Balaton circuit delivered an emotional weekend for the Ecosantagata Althea Racing Team, highlighted by Simon Jespersen\u2019s first-ever podium in the FIM Supersport World Championship, and a near double podium in Race 2. Both riders showed strong pace throughout the weekend, working consistently and building performance session after session until it all came together on Sunday. <\/p>\n\n\n

Jespersen finished Race 1 in sixth place after a solid comeback from tenth on the grid, but it was in Race 2 that he truly shone: starting from seventh, he got off to a perfect launch and took the lead in the early laps, setting the pace with confidence. After a fierce battle with the championship front-runners, he crossed the line in second place, earning the best result of his career and delivering Althea Racing its first major highlight of the season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An excellent performance also from Leonardo Taccini, who came close to an outstanding result on Sunday: starting twelfth, he pulled off an incredible start to slot into the top five already at Turn 1, and remained with the leading group until the race\u2019s midpoint. Unfortunately, a collision with another rider ended his run prematurely, just as he was fighting for podium positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
