Continuing with their strong schedule, Alessandro and J3 Competition attended the first rounds of the ECKC Championship at the famed Mosport International Raceway in Ontario, Canada. With two days of testing (Thursday and Friday) followed by two separate race days, J3 Competition entered a total of five drivers in the highly touted series. Being the event focused on the Rotax categories, Alessandro put his efforts in the DD2 division.

After a somewhat easy drive to victory in the pre-final on Saturday, Alessandro found a harder fight for the win in the final. After leading majority of the race, Alessandro came under attack in the later stages of the final only to regain the lead with three laps to go where he eventually cruised to a near one second margin of victory! On Sunday the team looked to repeat its performance, but with a hard fought final Alessandro would end up one step off the podium in fourth.

Alessandro Bressan: “It was very nice to win in my first race in Canada! I liked the track really much, it was very challenging, maybe a bit bumpy. We started with a good pace and were fast the whole weekend, I’m very satisfied with the work the team has done. The level of competition was really high, so this win means a lot. Unfortunately we couldn’t repeat the success on Sunday, but we’ll work to improve our pace even more in order to be even stronger in the next events!”
