EAB Racing rider Tony Covena finished another top-10 result at the fourth Superstock 1000 FIM Cup race at Donington Park. The Dutchmen finished the race in tenth after an incident-filled race. Covena was fifteenth after the first lap, but managed to fight forward. At the end he had a classic duel Donington Park in the last two hairpins. Unfortunately it did not work out for Covena to overtake Luca Salvadori in the last corner.

Tony Covena: "To be honest, I have more or less the same feeling as after Imola. My result, tenth is not bad but I still feel we could do better because the bike was very good. Unfortunately I got halfway through the race when I got problems with my arms and I had to slow down my pace. At the end I tried to pas Salvadori, but after a mistake from him in the Melbourne hairpin he kept the door firmly shut in Goddards and I just missed out on ninth. "

Also his team mate Tony Covena impressed a lot during the hectic race. The Dutch rider had to start from twelfth after a hard first day but had some good fights with very experienced Superstock 1000 riders. In that last lap he had the plan to overtake Jeremy Guarnoni but the EAB Racing Team rider just missed out on that chance and took his first top 10 score of the year.

Tony Covena: “We have had a very positive weekend. Only in the first session on Friday we had some problems but we worked very hard. The start of the race was good and I was close to the leaders. For some laps I followed Luca Salvadori before I could catch him. After that I was close to Jeremy Guarnoni and had a plan to pass him but he was too fast in the last part of the last lap. But I’m very happy with seventh. It’s my first top 10 and I had almost the same pace as Fabio. I couldn’t ask for more!”

Difficult  home  race  for  covena

26/5/2015

 
Tony Covena had a hard weekend in his and EAB Racing Team’s home race, but was still able to score three valuable points.

Tony Covena: “Three points after a hard weekend isn’t that bad to be honest. I don’t know why, but I’ve always difficult race weekends at my home track. After Aragon I was confident to score a top-10, but at least I’ve scored some points. In the warming-up we made a big improvement and that gives me a lot of confident for the next rounds. Unfortunately my first start was not so good and the red flag saved me at that moment. The second start of the day was much better, but it was a hard fight from eighth row of the grid. Next up is Imola, I’m ready for it!”
