Stats Update: Fastest Horice Newcomers

Thanks to Czech Road Racing aficionado, statistician Jan Vavra, we at Road Racing News are able to provide you with another Horice stats themed article.

This piece revolves around an update regarding the fastest newcomers to the Czech Republic’s most famous road race circuit.

Still quickest Horice debutant, post last month’s 300 Curves of Gustav Havel meeting is 2019 IRRC Superbike Champion Davey Todd.

Back in 2019, Todd set a best lap time of 2 minutes 15.084 seconds.

This is just under 0.2 quicker than present IRRC Superbike Championship leader Vincent Lonbois, top newcomers lap time (2.15.254) from 2016.

11 more racers have lapped sub 2 minutes 20 seconds, during their maiden Horice racing tenures.

Notable names to accomplish this feat, not showcased yet include:

Multi IRRC Champion Sebastian Le Grelle (2.17.153), triple Irish Road Race Superbike Champion Derek Sheils (2.17.971), IRRC legend Didier Grams (2.18.673).

The UK’s first IRRC Champion Danny Webb (2.19.055), quickest Horice debutant last month Karel Pesek (2.19.517) and the late, great Dan Kneen (2.19.735).
