False start for Jules Cluzel (33)… The Moto Club Montluçon (Allier) rider, who rides Team GMT94’s Yamaha, only finished nineteenth in the first race of the new season in Supersport World Championship, this Saturday April 9, 2022, on the Motoland Aragon track, in Teruel (Spain).

The fault already with a bad start. Eighth on the grid after morning qualifying, the Bourbonnais was immediately downgraded when the lights went out. Worse, in the first corner of the second of the fifteen laps to be completed, an exit from the track followed by a fall destroyed his hopes of a good performance.

He was able to leave without incident, but at the back of a strong platoon of twenty-nine pilots. Never mind, Jules Cluzel pushed hard, full throttle, overtaking his rivals to win nineteenth place at the start of the last lap. A position he will keep after the checkered flag.
The following
At the forefront, victory went to the Italian Lorenzo Baldassarri (Evan Bros), ahead of the Swiss defending champion Dominique Aegerter (Ten Kate Racing) and the Turkish Can Oncu (Puccetti Racing). Continuation and end of this first of the twelve stages of the championship, this Sunday, April 10, with race-2, on the same route. Departure at 12:30 p.m., again in eighth position for Jules Cluzel. Last year, the Montluçonnais won this second round in Teruel. So again repeat?
