The team lineup included experienced Swiss rider Jeremy Seewer and talented Italian Mattia Guadagnini, both competing on the new Ducati Desmo450 MX motorcycle. The event attracted a large crowd of spectators, creating an excellent atmosphere and strong support for all riders.

In the first race, Guadagnini delivered a solid performance, finishing 14th, while Seewer faced technical issues and ended up in 16th place.
