Kevin Corradetti is the 2025 Italian Flat Track Champion

The 2025 Italian Flat Track Championship came to a close where it had started back in April — on the red clay oval of Lonigo — after the Ravenna round was canceled two weeks ago due to bad weather. Before race 7, the points standings saw Daniele Tonelli (TM) and Kevin Corradetti (Yamaha–Di Traverso) tied on points, with Giacomo Bossetti (GASGAS–VFR) third, seven points behind.

On Vicenza soil, the showdown unfolded between the two best Italian flat track riders currently active. With three wins and a second place each in the qualifying heats — and a head-to-head score of 1–1 — Tonelli and Corradetti went straight to the final perfectly even.

The last race turned out to be more eventful than anyone hoped for. Tonelli got the better start as the lights went out, but the rider from the Marche region quickly took the lead with a clean switch of lines exiting turn one. Corradetti’s Yamaha initially seemed able to open a small gap, but Tonelli’s TM clawed its way back and refused to let go. Everything was decided just a couple of laps from the end, when Tonelli went down — fortunately without injury — while trying to close in on Corradetti.

Race stopped, single-file restart: Corradetti first and unchallenged, Tonelli at the back, serving a penalty for causing the red flag. At that point, it was little more than a formality. After another restart triggered by German rider Marius Kircher’s crash, Kevin Corradetti crossed the finish line calmly in first place, clinching the 2025 Italian Flat Track Championship in his debut season aboard the Yamaha managed by Marco Belli’s Di Traverso team.

Behind Corradetti, the checkered flag waved over a superb Angelo D’Oria (GASGAS–VFR) in second, and Kircher (KTM) in third. A round of applause goes to the rider from Romagna, who showed solid progress in this season finale and earned his first podium in the premier national series at Lonigo.

In the overall flat track championship standings behind the leading duo, Bossetti confirmed third place — despite finishing only eighth in Lonigo after a crash in the Final — followed by a consistent Michele Guerra in fourth, completing his first full year in the Italian Championship, and Angelo D’Oria fifth, climbing back after a less-than-brilliant start. Next came Christian Poli, Daniele Tuzi (unfortunately sidelined for the last three rounds), Alex Dalla Valle, Giulio Bonavita, and Mattia Castelli rounding out the top ten.
