‘A 10-hour race is my favourite’ – A fourth title and french fries on the agenda at Traka 360 for Mattia de Marchi

The Traka 360 and Mattia de Marchi seem to be a perfect match. The Italian gravel racer won the endurance event in each of the event’s first three years, from 2021 to 2023, stealing a little of the limelight from the signature Traka 200 race.

And he didn’t just eke out a victory, but won by margins of seven or more minutes each time, with 37:03 the largest gap in 2022 ahead of Lachlan Morton in second place.
