BMW Motorrad Motorsport News: Wins and podium finishes in France and South Africa.

 

South African Superbike Championship: Lance Isaacs dominant at Zwartkops.

The South African Superbike Championship (RSA SBK) held its second race event of the season at Zwartkops, South Africa, at the weekend and race day on Saturday couldn’t have gone any better for BMW racer Lance Isaacs (RSA) and his team LIR / Supabets Gaming Group. Isaacs won both races and also set the fastest race lap in both events. Fellow BMW rider Harry Timmerman (RSA / Sandton Motorrad APPC) finished the two races in tenth and ninth place.

 

French Superbike Championship: One-two result for BMW racers at Le Mans.

Made-to-measure start for BMW racers in the 2019 French Superbike Championship (FSBK): at the very first event of the season at Le Mans (FRA), they secured a one-two win. The 2017 champion and last season’s runner-up, Kenny Foray (FRA) of Tecmas Racing Team, won the first of Sunday’s two races on his BMW S 1000 RR. His team-mate Mathieu Gines (FRA) rounded off the success in second place. In race two, Gines finished in second place on the podium once again while Foray finished sixth. Maxime Bonnot (FRA), also from the Tecmas Racing Team, finished in tenth and seventh places, claiming first place in the Superbike Challenger (FSBK Ch) class in both races.

 

French European Bikes Championship: Victorious start to the season for the BMW S 1000 RR.

The BMW S 1000 RR riders kicked off the season with a one-two result in the French European Bikes Championship (FR EU) as well. The first races of the year were also held at Le Mans (FRA). Team MDS’s Jonathan Germany (FRA) won race one on Saturday. Cyril Brunet-Lugardon (FRA / Gers Moto Vitesse Ordannaise) secured second place on the podium. The pair finished on the podium once again in Sunday’s race when Germany took second, while Brunet-Lugardon finished in third place. The 2017 and 2018 champion, Florian Brunet-Lugardon (FRA / Gers Moto Vitesse Ordannaise), finished 11th in both races at the season opener.
