Intact juniors warmly welcome Fynn Kratochwil

As a new addition to LIQUI MOLY Husqvarna Intact GP Junior Team, the 14-year-old talent from Thuringia will make his debut in European Talent Cup this weekend in Estoril, Portugal. 

Fynn Kratochwil's successes in various minibike series have not gone unnoticed by the LIQUI MOLY Husqvarna Intact GP Junior Team. After Kratochwil turned 14 last August, he is now also allowed to compete in the European Talent Cup. However, his debut had to be postponed due to an injury he sustained during a test with his new race bike. Originally, the Thuringian was due to compete in the last race of the series a month ago in Jerez de la Frontera.

In the top-class JuniorGP™ Moto3™ class, the Memmingen based LIQUI MOLY Husqvarna Intact GP Junior Team will continue to compete at MotorLand Aragón circuit with its three rider line-up consisting of the two Upper Austrians Jakob Rosenthaler and Leo Rammerstorfer as well as Rico Salmela from Finland. Each of the three talented young riders recently drew attention to themselves with at least one highlight in Jerez. Rosenthaler, Salmela and Rammerstorfer want to build on this performance and are hungry for the task ahead.

The Spanish MotorLand Aragón circuit has been long an integral part of the FIM JuniorGP™ World Championship calendar with the JuniorGP™ Moto3™ class and the European Talent Cup. It is located in the outback of the country's east coast, around a 2.5 hours' drive southwest of Barcelona.

The championship comprises seven race weekends. There will be live timing from Friday and, as usual, a live stream via the series' YouTube channel on Sunday, where all races will be shown.
