"I'm very happy to be here and really looking forward to experiencing the track," he said. For Frantz, the race is more about learning than results. "I'm an amateur rider, so every race is a chance to learn something new and gain experience."
The Beijing Stone International Racing Team is also among the stronger teams competing in the event. Russian rider Matiash Aleksandr, competing in the Super Class, said he came to China at the invitation of friends.
