Team boss Lucot: Pre-Test confirms Viltais EWC potential

Yannick Lucot reckons the two-day Pre-Test for the 24 Heures Motos – the opening round of the upcoming FIM Endurance World Championship season – at Le Mans next month was significant in more ways than one. As well as providing further opportunity for Viltaïs Racing to gain experience with its new-for-2023 Honda CBR1000RR and Pirelli tyres, the running on the Circuit Bugatti “confirmed” the French team’s potential for EWC success. Ad “The Honda is a bike that proved to be very efficient right away,” Lucot said.

“It has power and a sound chassis. The riders like its comfort as well. We are also very happy with our Pirelli tyres, which offer both consistency and performance.
