At 29, this Italian firefighter in Rimini goes into history by his victory of the first international race of electric motorcycles which just finished ahead of the opening of the Le Mans 24 Hours Moto.

Betti Thomas has completed his best lap in 2'21 but he admitted to have driven in economic mode to manage the available charge during the last laps.
