The underbody was developed by Öhlins in Meuspath close to the Nürburgring and the new TTX damper is a custom product. Additionally the steering lever has been modified.” The former grandmaster of Superbike Pierfrancesco Chili from Spain who already knows Sevilla’s new racing track inside out was available as an instructor and test operator. “With his long-time experience in the 500 and Superbike World Championship series ‘Frankie’ Chilli passed on valuable advice to the team.

He really helped us and I would like to thank him for his great support” commented Matthias Himmelmann.
