Sun, good atmosphere, enthusiastic audience and motorcycles at full speed on the Ebro River. The Aragon Championship raised the curtain yesterday in Vadorrey's azud and released the first classified in the categories that give shape to the competition. The event also involved the starting pistoletazo of the national competition, and in Zaragoza the main names of the circuit were quoted yesterday inside and outside the country.

The Autonomical is held since 2011 with the organization of the Zaragoza Nautical Club (CNZ). "We can presume to be a very active delegation. And, being from an interior territory. People have been delighted with the competition and have enjoyed a lot," said the president of the entity, Juan Quilez. CNZ is one of the most active in the matter and, together with the Real Federación Española de Motonática and the collaboration of the Club Escudería Zona Franca, has scheduled a Regional with five tests: four in the Aragonese community and one in Tarragona. The first date was to be held at the La Estanca reservoir in Alcáiz, coinciding with the Superbikes World Cup, and the trophy delivery was to take place in Motorland. But the water level of the wetland prevented its celebration. The Ebro Hydrographic Confederation did not have any difficulty in changing the scenario, expediting the processing of documentation and providing the necessary permits in almost 24 hours.

A total of 19 pilots from the Basque Country, Tarragona, Toledo, Castellón and the land did not want to miss the event. Own names like Francisco Javier Pérez de la Hoz, who is responsible for the motoronautics section of the Nautico Club and who has the world record of 6 hours of resistance that he achieved on April 23, 2011 at the Ebro. The imfuel Juan Aloguín, who celebrated yesterday being the fastest of the participants the beginning of its 34 season in the national and international elite and premiere machine: the brand new Yamaha with which he aspires to continue to embellish his palmaris in which there are countless trophies in World, European, National, Copas del Rey, Iberian Copas and, of course, Aragon Championships.
