Since the collision on the day of the departure in Kiel on Sunday, August 10, the Allagrande MAPEI Racing team - with the support of TR Racing - has been forced to organize a complex logistics operation to bring material from Lorient or get it locally in Kiel. Some repairs were quick, others required advanced technical work, generating moments of uncertainty as to whether they could return to the competition.
