Three years ago during the San Marino GP weekend, Marco Simoncelli and his friends decided to organize a kart race, that was dubbed ‘Spurtleda’ (Italian dialect for bashing fairings) due to the high level of fun that they had.
Last year the Spurtleda was re-organized by his old friends who added the late Simoncelli’s racing number 58 and this year they have gone all ou,t and have invited the MotoGP riders to take part in this charity event and the response from riders to partecipate was overwhelming.
