Finally! We are here in the PCT after 8 seasons of trying so very hard to make it! An excellent season last year being led by Dusan Rajovic, Yuriy Vasyliv and Markus Kopfauf. A great season for us last year! This season we are hoping to have a strong transfer season and then head into the season with a strong start!
Welcome to the new Spark-BNZ Racing team HQ and we hope you enjoy and get involved with the team!

Can only join the others, it's great to see you take the next step Guess that means some more TT battles against you 
Good luck - and a lot of fun - for the transfer season, should be quite different from what you're used to, having a lot more free wage cap now

Congrats on the promotion mate! Really great to see it happen! All it took was some riders who was raised with some love ;-) (Vasyliv and Kopfauf).
I hope you can find a way to establish yourself at the PCT. I think you Can!

Great to see you sneak into the extra promotion spots and Rajovic seemed to be a key piece getting you there.
Maybe we should discuss him coming back 'home'

Congrats on promotion, a great reward after all those years in CT! Really curious how you'll shape your team with all that extra money now. There are some building blocks there for sure but a lot of work to be done, too. I know that feeling, so best of luck in what's going to be a really fun transfer period

I know I've celebrated it plenty but so happy for you with a great season last year to be in the PCT. I was a little worried it would get to the point of me selling you 35y/o Bennett or something to try and help it happen Very excited to be racing with you once again and to see your PCT squad get built. Best of luck, as always I'm sure I'll be seeing you plenty in transfers

Congratulations! Glad to see you made it to PCT and we'll be racing against eachother again for the first time since the 2020 season. I hope your transfer period goes smoothly and we'll fight for victories against each other in many races
