FIM Moto3™ World Championship – Gran Premi de Catalunya
Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya (Montemló, Spain) | Sunday, 26th May, 2024
At this weekend’s Gran Premi de Catalunya, Noah Dettwiler had to learn the ropes as a rookie in the top-class Moto3 World Championship. The 19-year-old Swiss rider missed out on a top 20 finish in the race.
Conditions would have been good for a conciliatory conclusion of round six of the current championship this Sunday in Barcelona. In the best early summer weather and in front of full grandstands, Noah Dettwiler wanted to overcome both difficult days of practice. But the KTM rider from the CIP Green Power Team in the south of France was unable to further improve on race day.
The championship continuers directly with the next race at the beautiful Autodromo Internazionale del Mugello in Italy’s Tuscany region.
#55 Noah DETTWILER (CIP Green Power, KTM RC250GP):
Race: P21 +40.552
«I don’t even know how to start. Barcelona was a very difficult weekend, especially from my side coming. I couldn’t get into my rhythm right from the start and never felt comfortable. That’s why I couldn’t set any decent lap times. I simply lacked the feeling. Fortunately, we continue next weekend in Mugello, where we can and must work on getting out of this hole.»
