A good event characterized the 47th edition of the Trofeo

KZ2
Category KZ2, that is always very spectacular, has been very exciting due also to the rain. The Final was dominated by Alessandro Pelizzari (Energy-TM-Vega), who has always been among the quickest during the whole weekend. He took an early lead after the retirement of his closest rival and teammate from Sweden Emil Skaras.
