In a heart-pumping WorldSSP Race 1 at TT Assen Circuit this Saturday, Chinese manufacturer ZXMOTO made waves as French rider Valentin Debise secured fourth place – just 0.3 seconds shy of a podium finish! 🌍 The Pirelli Dutch Round saw 34 riders battle it out over 18 laps, with Debise starting strong in second position on his ZXMOTO 820RR-RS.
🔥 The action peaked early as Debise dueled Yamaha's Can Oncu, their bikes separated by mere centimeters. But drama unfolded when Oncu collided with Triumph's Tom Booth-Amos in the final laps. Debise skillfully avoided the chaos, only to face a cruel twist: A last-corner penalty dropped him from third to fourth despite his heroic charge.
🏆 Ducati's Jaume Masia stole the show with a comeback victory, while Yamaha's Albert Arenas claimed second. Booth-Amos rounded out the podium in third. Though missing the rostrum, Debise's performance builds momentum for ZXMOTO after their historic double win in Portimao last month – proving Chinese motorsport tech can go wheel-to-wheel with global giants.
📈 With Race 2 coming Sunday, all eyes are on whether Debise can turn near-misses into champagne showers. As one fan tweeted: 'ZXMOTO's rising faster than a TikTok trend!' 🚀
