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!”

Tony Covena has scored a very well-deserved thirteenth place in today’s Superstock 1000 FIM Cup race at MotorLand Aragon in Spain. The EAB Racing Team rider had to start from eighteenth on the grid after a difficult begin of the weekend, because of the late arrival of some vital components due to logistical problems. Despite this major challenge and despite a hard sprint to the first corner, the Dutchmen was able to score three important points aboard his EAB Racing Team Ducati 1199 Panigale R.

With his sight on 2015 Tony Covena got the chance to test a Ducati Panigale from the EAB-racing team. Together with several MotoGP and WSBK teams the young Dutchmen completed his first test onboard a STK1000 bike.

Due to continuing problems in Tony's part of the garage, what couldn't be fixed by the team, the decision has been made to make a early stop to the 2014 Supersport season.
We would like to thank everybody that has helped Tony to compete in this years World Championship. The planning for next year is under construction and as soon as this is finalized we will bring some updates.
