Guarnoni wins in threes
The 17-year-old rider from Toulouse in France is actually a very experienced rider in this class, having raced in the category since 2008, when he first rode for the ASPI team, on a Yamaha. He has made 30 starts already.
Podiums first arrived the year later when he was racing for the Morillas team, again on Yamahas, but this year Guarnoni pushed hard all the way, making starts from the front row nine times, and leading the series from the first round until the very last. The championship was a great fight between Guarnoni and his fellow Frenchman Florian Marino, with the final margin of advantage being 28 points.
Guarnoni stated, "I'm very happy because I waited three years to win this title. The bike was really good, I work really well with Adrien Morillas to set up the bike and the whole team and Yamaha have worked really hard to get me here."
