Four riders, one crown: Garzo holds the cards as Misano finale awaits

The Dynavolt Intact GP MotoE™ rider boasts a commanding 37-point lead ahead of the final two races of 2024 as we get set to crown a Champion at Misano.

It all comes down to this. The final round of the 2024 FIM Enel MotoE™ World Championship is nearly upon us as we get ready to crown this year’s World Champion at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli. Four riders are mathematically in with a shout still as the final two races near, but it’s Hector Garzo (Dynavolt Intact GP MotoE™) who holds a healthy 37-point advantage going into the weekend.

A P2 and victory at the Red Bull Ring put Garzo in a dream position heading into 2024’s curtain closer, with the #4 winning four of the last six races to sit well clear of second place Mattia Casadei (LCR E-Team). Reigning Champion Casadei two P3s in Austria, but the Italian was left rueing his P9 in qualifying.

Kevin Zannoni’s (Openbank Aspar Team) pace at the Red Bull Ring was superb, and it was only a last lap track limits penalty that cost the Italian double rostrum success. Still, a P4 and a P2 signalled a great weekend, but it meant the #21’s deficit to Garzo stands at 44 points with two races left to play.

Until the penultimate corner in Race 2, Oscar Gutierrez’s (Axxis-MSI) weekend was going perfectly. Pole position, Race 1 victory and leading in Race 2 with two laps to go – and then heartbreak struck. That late DNF sees Gutierrez sit 49 points adrift as we land in Misano, with just 50 left on the table. Impossible? No, but it would be the mightiest of turnarounds for the rookie to take the crown on Saturday afternoon.
