The Yamaha-powered, Dunlop-equipped Polish squad’s #77 entry features Mathieu Gines, Dan Linfoot and Sheridan Morais and Team Manager Adam Stępień has high hopes.

Ad “The season started quite unlucky for us during the Le Mans race, but at Spa we showed a very good pace and fought for a great fifth place, so now we want to raise the bar even higher,” Stępień said. “Bol d'Or is a unique race for us, because it was here that we fought our first podium and we would like to repeat this result on Sunday.
