Mitas introduces a new version of the SW-07 SPEEDWAY tyre, one of the tyres most commonly used by speedway racers all over the world. The most advanced speedway tyre Mitas has ever made, it is specifically designed for the highest level of competitive speedway racing.

Gustavo Pinto Teixeira, Vice President Two Wheels at Trelleborg Wheel Systems, says: “The introduction of the new Mitas SW-07 SPEEDWAY tyre represents our continuous commitment to supporting all our riders with the perfect product in any challenge they have to face. We can’t wait for speedway racers to start using this new version and are sure that it will help them to achieve amazing results. We are proud that the development was supported by many top speedway racers. A special thanks to all the racers with whom we have been working closely during the development stages.”

Red, white, blue – these three colours evoke associations with legendary desert races for rally fans. They conjure up memories of the unforgotten Gilles Lalay's Honda XL 600 or the NRX750 ridden by Neveu and Orioli, not to forget Auriol's winning Boxer with the discreet stripe in BMW motorsport colours on its impressive tank or - not so long ago - Nani Roma's 900RR. And in the modern era of adventure bikes, the HP2 ridden by the flying Finn, Simo Kirssi. No matter what the brand or era, the combination of these three colours stands for clarity, focus and an unconditional will to win.
The new "Sport" décor of the Touratech Aventuro Traveller Carbon continues this great tradition. This design combines the iconic colours with the cleanness of contemporary graphic language. In this attractive outfit, the Touratech Aventuro Traveller not only matches numerous current touring suits perfectly but also the many colour combinations of adventure bikes from a wide range of manufacturers.
"Sunrise" is the name of the second new décor for the Aventuro Traveller. Powerful sunshine yellow contrasts with striking rock grey and classic black. This variant is tailor-made for motorcyclists who appreciate elegant understatement. The discreet graphics emphasise the powerful shapes of the helmet shell and, in their technical reduction, reflect the uncompromising functionality of the Aventuro Traveller.
While the "Sunrise" décor sets a striking accent in combination with classic black rider equipment, it is the logical choice for complementing the grey-yellow design of the Compañero suits from Touratech.

The Touratech Aventuro Traveller Carbon
The Aventuro Traveller is an innovative modular helmet made of ultra-light carbon, specially designed to meet the demands of adventure tours. Even when wearing gloves, its chin section can be easily unlocked and flipped up.
The clear visor, which is easy to operate thanks to its central locking system, has a Pinlock™ anti-fog inner surface, which ensures optimum visibility even in unfavourable weather conditions. When the sun is low in the sky, a fold-down visor protects the eyes.
Helmet peak and air inlets are matched for maximum airflow around the head. There is a large, closable air inlet in the chin section for cooling the face.
The skin-friendly Coolmax™ lining can be removed for washing, as can the neck and cheek pads. The quick-release fastener of the chin strap is particularly easy to use and extremely robust thanks to its stainless steel components.
When developing the EPS dome of the Touratech Aventuro Traveller Carbon, not only were the needs of spectacle wearers taken into account but all the necessary cut-outs for the integration of communication systems were provided as well.
In addition to the new Sport and Sunrise versions, a black version of the Touratech Aventuro Traveller Carbon is also available. All helmet sizes from XS to 3XL are available for 679 Euro.

Germany-based leading multinational company specialised in hardware, consumables, and professional tools for the mobility, craftmanship and manufacturing sectors Berner has chosen Team Gresini also in 2022, as the partnership between the two institutions extends to a staggering 17 year-period this season.

Things have changed completely, from the return to MotoGP as an independent team to the choice of racing with Ducati, the return of Enea Bastianini and the step up by Enea Bastianini; Berner has not changed, however, and will be back with the Faenza-based team as MotoGP technical supplier.

ANTONIO ZUFFELLATO – BERNER ITALIA MARKETING DIRECTOR
“The partnership with Team Gresini Racing makes us very proud. To know that the team uses our products for the preparation and cleaning of the bike highlights how well-performing our solutions are to satisfy any time of need. During these years, we have built a trustworthy relationship and partnership with the whole of Team Gresini Racing: The passion for two wheels combined with sporting competitions represents a strong bond both with our company and our clients.”

CARLO MERLINI – GRESINI RACING COMMERCIAL AND MARKETING DIRECTOR
“There are very few words left to describe the importance of the relationship with Berner. I cannot even go back in time with my memory to find a season without what is such a key relationship for us. We just started this new journey and I must say that things are going pretty well so far. We can’t wait for the upcoming races in order to keep working the same we did until now – and that’s also thanks to Berner.”

ELISABETTA FRANCHI DRESSES THE GRID GIRLS OF THE GRESINI RACING TEAM AND LAUNCHES AN INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE FOR ALL WOMEN   

Throughout 2022, the Grid Girls of Gresini Racing will join the fray alongside the riders of the MotoGP, Moto2 and MotoE circuits wearing dresses, jackets and high-tech jumpsuits signed by the designer.

Elisabetta Franchi signs the uniforms of the Grid Girls of the Gresini team and brings for the first time a fashion brand on the MotoGP, Moto2 and MotoE tracks: it is an extraordinary mix of women&engines starting on March the 6th with the Qatar Grand Prix. Furthermore, this project starts something with a much higher value than a simple collaboration between brands: a profound understanding between Elisabetta Franchi and Nadia Gresini, at the helm of the team.

The collection made by the designer for the Gresini team is a complete line of dresses, jackets, down jackets, jumpsuits and footwear, including sneakers and seductive pumps. The uniforms have been designed and studied to suggest an aesthetic and stylistic connection with the design of the bikes and the colours of the riders' suits, based on the categories in which they compete.

Not only wardrobe design for the Grid Girls of the Gresini team, but also extraordinary technological research. The uniforms, in fact, are made of DHtech 260 Light Pro by Athesis combining two layers of polypropylene to offer maximum comfort and adherence to the body, a thickness reduced to a minimum, exceptional thermal insulation and absolute breathability. With this innovative fabric, impalpable garments are born, with a high graphic definition and top performances even in everyday life.

ELISABETTA FRANCHI
“When Nadia Gresini contacted me, I immediately felt a great empathy for the personal story we share: we both had to face the pain of losing a husband and we both decided to take on the company 100%. This is much more than a collection, it is a message wishing to inspire all women on the value of female resourcefulness and on the importance of teamwork”.

NADIA PADOVANI
"I am proud and honored to confirm the beginning of a beautiful collaboration between the Gresini Racing and Elisabetta Franchi, a successful stylist and entrepreneur, to whom I am bound by feelings of esteem and affinity for the history and experiences, even painful, that we have in common. We celebrate together Enea Bastianini's extraordinary victory in the recent Qatar Grand Prix, experiencing the excellent results of teamwork, passion, enthusiasm and determination, the same values we share in both our personal and professional life. I have always looked with admiration at the brilliant path taken by Elisabetta Franchi with who a natural feeling was immediately established. This also stimulates me to carry on and realize the dreams that my husband had begun to build.”
