It was an intense, hot and emotional weekend for Honda Racing RedMoto Enduro Team, competing in Civitaquana (PE) for the fourth and penultimate round of the 2025 Enduro Italian Championship. The two-days event was marked by high temperatures and three technically and demanding special tests on dry and stony terrain that challenged both riders and bikes.
Despite the tough conditions, the team heads home with a positive outcome: two second-place finishes and a podium narrowly missed.
Thomas Oldrati finished both race days in fourth place in the 250 4T class, showing great determination and adaptability. After a cautious first day spent adjusting to the terrain, he delivered a fast and consistent performance on Sunday, battling with Soreca right up to the final test. In the end, he missed the podium by just three seconds.
Also competing in the 250 4T, Samuele Bernardini had a standout weekend, securing back-to-back second places behind Lesiardo. On Saturday, he impressed with a steady pace and precision, while Sunday brought more challenges. Nonetheless, his results allow him to retain the Championship lead, now tied on points with Lesiardo. The title fight will go down to the wire at the final round, where the Tuscan rider will line up ready to give it everything.
A standout performance came from Manolo Morettini, who claimed two second-place finishes in the ultra-competitive 450 4T class, just behind the lightning-fast Andrea Verona. Showing both aggression and composure, Morettini confirmed himself as one of the weekend’s top contenders, staying within reach of the top five in the overall standings. His results solidify his second place in the championship, setting the stage for a thrilling final battle.
