"Translated with Google translate"

At the South Garda the third round of the group North leaves the mark. They take to the track in 150 for the challenge that launches the sprint of the group and in fifteen days we run the Italian Championship.
Bertuca, Morgato, Zemin, Molinari and Machado win, in their respective categories, in a context with a strongly international flavor.

MINI ROK. BERTUCA UNBEATABLE IN LONATO
They come from eleven different nations the thirty six Mini Rokker who compete in South Garda, for the third round of the group north, confirming the tradition that wants the Rok Cup as a formidable test for young and very young people who want to train.
Pasiewicz, Bertuca and Ianiello presented themselves in this order after qualifying, regulating the thirty-six suitors in the third round of the North Rok.
The prefinal arrival order photocopies the qualifications, at least for the first three positions, with Pasiewicz, Bertuca and Ianiello, fourth is the Slovenian Malek, author of a good recovery.
In the final Pasiewicz and Bertuca slightly detach their pursuers and they play the victory. Among them the race is decided on the fifth lap with the decisive override of the Italian against the Polish. So Bertuca goes to take the second win of the season, on two races disputed, both races in Lonato. Who knows that the young Cristian Bertuca is not doing a little thought already at the Gare Rok in October?
Pasiewicz is second and is not involved in the uncertain confrontation between Marenghi, Barbieri, Ianiello, Megna and Malek, to get a place on the podium. These five riders compete for third place and to get the best, only in the final, is Marenghi.
Barbieri, despite losing the podium, does not lose the championship lead, as his direct rivals in the standings, Marconato and Megna, come to his shoulders, respectively, eighth and sixth.

JUNIOR ROK. MORGATO RAISES THE ASTICELLA
The entry list for the third stage of the Rok Nord is international, with 48 riders coming from all over the world such as top Rokker, Morgato (Brazil), Ugochukwu (USA), Wharton (Australia) and Peugeot (France). Without forgetting the Italian pilots, Cecchi, Locatelli, Gulizia, Ferrari, Baracco and Croccolino
The three heats necessary to outline the starting grid are fun and useful to give a first scale of values. To win them are the Italian Locatelli, the US Ugochukwu (author of the pole) and the Florida Winter Tour 2018, the Brazilian Morgato.
In the final Morgato is impeccable and immediately runs away to victory, pursued by Ugochukwu. The overseas copy is unrivaled and makes eighteen rounds undisturbed in this order.
Behind them, Gulizia takes third place in the first stages, until the fourth lap, when the championship leader Cecchi, takes the third position. The spectacular fight for the last place on the podium does not end and Gulizia returns to third place, for a short lapse of the. The race continues with Ferrari passing the same Gulizia and closes on the podium.
In the tussle in the fourth position is able to get the Australian Wharton who regulates only in the final, Locatelli, Croccolino, Cecchi and Gulizia.
In a spectacular final as always, the king of overtaking is Marzi, who leaps from the thirty-sixth place on the grid, up to the eleventh below the checkered flag.
In the championship standings, Cecchi remains leader ahead of Locatelli, with Gulizia third and Ferrari fourth, ready to give the assault in the last two races.
Also Baracco and Croccolino are not to be overlooked from a championship perspective.
When we saw him at the South Garda in the Rok Junior we will see him again in fifteen days at the ACI-Rok Junior Italian Championship.

SENIOR ROK. MOLINARIES FROM THE BEGINNING TO THE END
The forty-one triggered Senior disputes three heats, with two wins by Molinari and one by Maciej Szyszko.
Gaglianò and D'Abramo do not lose ground on the leading pair and earn the second row.
Molinari confirms to be in a great day and makes his final, taking the first to the last lap. For the second position the comparison between Gaglianò, Maciej Szyszko and D'Abramo is resolved in a few laps in favor of the Polish.
The third position goes to the international champion Super Rok D'Abraham, who leaves a very strong group, composed by Szymon Szyszko, Lady Fabien Lanz, Cicognini, Gaglianò and Comanducci. These pilots cut the finish line in this order.
In the title race Maciej Szyszko takes another step forward but D'Abramo firmly holds second place and does not show complacency. Szymon Szyszko leads the group of pursuers, ahead of Cicognini, Gaglianò, Kaprzyk, Martinello and Molinari.
With two races to play, and two scraps to make, not the last word is said and Maciej Szyszko will have to be careful not to make false steps, given the very high level of the platoon of the pursuers. Up to now only four Maciej Szyszko have won twice in the races, on the other two occasions Gaglianò and Molinari have been on the highest step of the podium.

SHIFTER ROK. ZEMIN LAUNCHES THE CHALLENGE IN BENSI AND SQUARANTI.
Since the first race the protagonists have been theirs, Bensi, leader of the championship, Squaranti and Zemin, very strong rivals of the leader.
The script was repeated once again in Lonato, the race in which the long-awaited arrived, and deserved, success for Zemin.
The final was relatively monotonous with the three protagonists of the championship that led the games, with Zemin leader and Squaranti and Bensi at the foot of the podium. The race also brought other interesting Rokkers such as Tuia and Muller into the limelight.
Tuia struggled, for good traits of the event, on a par with the three heads and showed that in the next round will be increasingly dangerous. Likewise, the Swiss Muller is also growing in the gearbox category and will soon be the absolute protagonist.
In the Garda race there was also the welcome return of Guidetti, already protagonist of the Rok Cup, since the Mini Rok. Guidetti has closed in the first, sixth, and is alternating the Rok program with single-seater races. The most adrenaline-fueled final was the Swiss Luyet, author of the pole, and able to reassemble after an ill-fated stop in the pre-final. Bresaola, Nespoli and Di Bari completed the top ten of Shifter Rok.
The arrival order of the Lonato race is the mirror of the general classification, with Bensi, Squaranti and Zemin very close to the standings and Tuia not far away, ready to do the outside together with Muller. The championship final promises to be simply spectacular!
