Switch From Aspar To ALPO Atlético de Madrid

(*Above: Pere - on number 30 - new team, new colours!)

One minor bombshell that's emerged from the results of Round 5 of the CEV Championships at Albacete is that Pere now appears to have completely switched teams.
Initially when he was replaced in the Aspar WC 125cc squad by Adrian Martin, there was no official talk from the team about him leaving altogether - indeed he was in the box, wearing Aspar colours, at the following race at Misano - and we had assumed that he would continue to compete for the Aspar Team in the Spanish CEV championships, as he had done up to that point.
Something has changed since then though, with a race report on Motociclismo.es containing the following words...

"...después de dejar las filas del Team Aspar y estar ahora defendiendo los colores del ALPO Atlético de Madrid."
This translates roughly as:
"...having left the ranks of the Aspar Team and now racing in the colors of Alpo Atletico de Madrid."

We're surprised at the lack of coverage of the change, and if the split from Aspar is permanent then we're sad, but hope that Pere's career will progress unhindered.
We wish him all the best at the new team - and we hope that we can bring you more news of how he is getting on in due course.

CEV - Round 5 - Albacete - Grid

As ever, it's not easy to get you information regarding the Spanish CEV championships as it's hard for us to find many or detailed sources here in the UK, but here's what we know...

It seems the 125cc category for today's Round 5 of the CEV at Albacete was divided into 2 groups given the high number of entrants.
Alberto Moncayo is on pole with a time of 1'34 "1. Daniel Saez in second with 1'35 "3, while third is Efren Vazquez, with Louis Salom completing the front row. As far as we can make out Pere heads up the second row.

More later when the results come in!
Buena suerte Tutu :)
