Everything is ready for the second stage of the SuperSport600 Next Gen World Championship, in Portugal, on the spectacular ups and downs of the track Portimao. In fact, the SuperBike paddock landed on Portuguese soil last week for two days of testing and the men of the Ravenna team Evan Bros they definitely made themselves heard with Oncu fastest of all. The team headed by Fabio Evangelista, from this year called Yamaha bLUcRU Evan Bros Team, deploy the Turk Can Oncu and the very young Indonesian Aldi Mahendra and will be on track from this morning from 10.40 to 11.30 (Italian time) for the only free practice session. In the afternoon (14.55-15.35) the Superpole is scheduled to establish the starting grid for race 1 scheduled for tomorrow afternoon at 13.35 while at 10.30 the 10' of warm up are scheduled.

Same time also for the test on Sunday: 13.35, this is because also in Portugal the daylight saving time starts in the night between tomorrow and Sunday. "In the tests carried out here – says the Turk himself Can Oncu – things went very well, so I can only be very motivated. We have already shown in Australia that we can aim for the top positions. It will be a fun weekend". The Ravenna native also returns to the race in Portimao Federico Caricasulo, forced to miss the first stage in Australia due to a crash during testing.
