| FTR AND COGHLAN SCOOP ARAGON VICTORY |
| FTR MOTO and Team Joe Darcey Monlau’s Kev Coghlan won Sunday’s fourth round of the CEV Buckler Spanish Moto2 Championship at the Motorland Aragon circuit after a dominant display on the Honda-engined M210. Coghlan qualified in fourth place and lead from the start of the 15-lap race, he set a new lap record on the third lap – 0.2s faster than his qualifying time – and eventually ran out winner by 2.2s from Spain’s Ivan Moreno. Young Scotsman Coghlan added to his second round race victory at Albacete and now sits just five points off the lead of the series with three rounds remaining. Round five is at Albacete on September 12. FTR’s Steve Bones said: “We’re over the moon with the performance of Team Joe Darcey Monlau and Kev. The Spanish programme is really progressing well and the Team Joe Darcey Monlau performances have put FTR to the forefront of the new Moto2 series almost immediately. “The next round at Albacete is one we would hope Kev could win again but the final two rounds – at Valencia and Jerez in November – may be a different proposition as some of the World Championship teams will be competing. “But Kev has shown a maturity beyond his years to win last year’s European and Spanish Supersport titles so we’re sure he’s more than capable of challenging for and winning the title.” Ends.
