Championship, was characterized by the doubled allocation of points up for grabs.
In the 600 category Travagliati Giordano led the race alone, cutting the
finish with an advantage of almost 18 seconds over his pursuers: being however registered in

place of the heats: after the unfortunate weekend in Mugello, the athlete of the Alfonsi team
Racing Yamaha flies to 72 points in the standings, at -27 from the leader Filippo Guadagni, second al
end of the race and creator of the category best-lap in 1’45.378 with the team’s Kawasaki

third place overall with 59 total points. Fourth on arrival is the 2020 winner Zerbo
