Joan Lascorz, quadriplegic rally driver finished third in the general category of the Guadalajara Off Road Rally and first in the buggies category. Lascorz, a rising star, is proving that his spinal injury doesn't prevent him from being competitive against drivers with no disabilities in the Spanish Off Road Rally Championship.
Joan Lascorz, quadriplegic rally driver, took first place in the buggies category at the Baja Aragón. Lascorz, who competes in CERTT alongside drivers without disabilities, has once again shown that he is an exceptional driver, before and after his spinal injury.
From 22 to 24 July, Teruel will host the 33rd Baja Aragón, one of the toughest, most hardcore tests on the CERTT (Spanish National All-Terrain Rally Championship). For the second year in a row, Joan "Jumbo" Lascorz, quadriplegic driver and member of our #BatecRapidTeam, will compete with his co-driver Sergi Brugué.
Joan "Jumbo" Lascorz, the first quadriplegic rally pilot and member of our #BatecRapidTeam, is competing in CERTT (Spanish Cross-Country Rally Championship) for the second year in a row. So how does a pilot with such a severe spinal injury prepare for a championship of this magnitude?
Joan Lascorz, Òscar Lanza and Martyn Ashton are the ambassadors for our fastest handbike: the BATEC RAPID handbike. They love speed, motorsports, adrenaline, doughnuts and action... Who better to represent us? Today we're going to tell you more about them, were sure you'll love them as much as we do!
Martyn Ashton (United Kingdom) is a legend of mountain bike trials and a speed demon. Despite being left paraplegic in 2013, his new video Martyn Asthon - Back on track shows that he still has a lot left to do on a bike. Or maybe on his BATEC RAPID handbike ;-) Because, we're proud to say, Martyn is a member of the #BatecRapidTeam.
