The exciting challenge among the fastest European girls is back again!

The second round of the European Women's Cup will take place in the Rijeka-Grobnik circuit in Croatia next Sunday, June 12th, together with the European Championship (125 cc, 250 cc, Supersport, Superstock 600, Women's Cup).

Among the favourites, of course, the Italian riders who won the Vallelunga race, Alessia Polita (in the 600 cc class) and Samuela De Nardi (in the 1000 cc class), but also the French Fabienne Migout, who has proved fast even in a circuit she didn't know before, and the Hungarian Petra Sovegjarto, who's familiar with the Rijeka circuit, having raced this track in the Alpe Adria cup. Great expectations for Ela Seestaller, the German rider who, having missed the Vallelunga race, will measure herself against the other European racers for the first time.

Next Sunday race results will be decisive for the championship standings, looking forward to the third and last round in Schleiz (Germany) that will crown the two European champions (600 cc and 1000 cc) of the first all-female European Road Racing Championship in the history of motorcycling.

Timetable:

Sunday June, 12th
Warm up: 9.40 a.m.
Race: 11.15 a.m.
