Tito Rabat heads to Le Mans after successful Almeria test

The Marc VDS Racing Team head to round five of the Moto2 and Moto3 World Championships at Le Mans with some confidence, after a successful two-day test at the Almeria circuit in Spain.

For Tito Rabat Almeria is like a second home, as the 24-year-old Spaniard spends a lot of time turning laps at the circuit between Moto2 races. Rabat, like his Marc VDS teammate, focussed mainly on testing different settings on his Kalex Moto2 machine, but still managed to beat his own lap record around the 4.025km Almeria track.

Tito Rabat:
“To come to Almeria, my favourite circuit, with the team was like a dream for me. I really enjoyed the two days, as it was a chance to get to know everyone in the team even better, without the pressures of a race weekend. Also I got to spend some time with Marc van der Straten, our team owner. I know the Almeria circuit very well, so it was a great opportunity to see where we can improve with the bike and we are well prepared for Le Mans next week. We still have work to do, but the aim in France will remain the same; to win.”
