Grand Prix drivers are in good shape. Aleix Espargaró demonstrated this by participating in a sporting event subjecting organisms to torture. Anyone who tries, like Spider-Man, to weave his web for a next season which will not necessarily take place at Suzuki, while fighting on the track against a Jorge Lorenzo who has appropriated Thor's hammer, can claiming to be officially Iron Man. To do this, we had to run like Forest, but not only that…
The 26-year-old Pol rider, who has secured an official future with KTM, competed with teammates in an event called Ironman 70.3.
An evocative name and a number that must be expressed in miles. Or the equivalent of 113 km.
A hell of a distance broken down as follows: 1,9 km swimming, 90 km cycling, and 21,1 km running. A triathlon on the Pescara side was no picnic, which Maverick Viñales' current teammate completed in 5 hours and 26 minutes.
Not bad and even very good. We could even cast him as Superman for such a performance!
This reminds us that ALL Grand Prix drivers are very high-level athletes who have to face heart rates of 200 beats per minute, while being breath-holding at every turn... Respect!
