The Austrian team managed by Mandy Kainz aren’t giving up. YART Yamaha are ready to go all out at the final race, the 12 Hours of Estoril, to fight for the world title, which is still within their reach.

The 2019-2020 FIM Endurance World Championship final – the 12 Hours of Estoril – takes place this Saturday. Between 2 Wheels, our programme bringing you the latest from the FIM EWC, will feature Christian Lavieille, the winner of the last endurance race held at Estoril, and three of the riders seeking the win in Portugal on 26 September. Between 2 Wheels will be live from 6.30pm CET today (Tuesday 22 September) on Facebook and YouTube.

With all the favourites in a tight group at the top of the FIM Endurance World Championship standings, the 2019-2020 finale in Portugal is set to be a high-octane race. The 12 Hours of Estoril will be flagged off on the circuit near Lisbon at 8.30am local time on Saturday 26 September.

The factory BMW team are raring to go for the final at Estoril. Kenny Foray, Markus Reiterberger and Peter Hickman will be riding the S 1000 RR and gunning for victory in Portugal, plus a Top 3 spot in the FIM Endurance World Championship.

The Polish team used the Portuguese national Superbike championship as an opportunity to find their feet at Estoril. Broc Parkes and Sheridan Morais were on the podium after the two races held at the circuit near Lisbon this weekend.

VRD Igol Pierret Experiences, the first privateer team past the finish at the 24 Heures Motos in late August, have made consistent progress. The Yamaha-mounted French team are keen to win, but even keener to keep on learning from one race to the next. VRD Igol Pierret Experiences will put their Yamaha 333 in the capable hands of Florian Alt, Florian Marino and Nico Terol at Estoril.
