Adrian Huertas claims 2021 WorldSSP300 Championship title

With a 56 points advantage over his closest competitor Jeffrey Buis, Adrian Huertas becomes the fourth Spanish WorldSSP300 Champion, as Spain continues to dominate the class with four titles in five seasons, stopped only by the Netherlands’ Jeffrey Buis in 2020. In 2022, Huertas will look forward to consolidating his brilliant 2021 season and cementing himself as a name to watch out for in the not-too-distant future.

Adrian Huertas, MTM Kawasaki:

“I feel quite more comfortable now because in Jerez, I suffered a little bit. Then I kept working this week at home with my physical trainer. I preferred to go back home instead of staying here in Portimao for holidays. Then, I think this is a compensation because finally, I managed to be on the podium and to win the Championship. I’m really happy I want to thank all my team, Ludo from MTM, Fabien from Kawasaki, because they gave me the support I needed to become WorldSSP300 Champion. Without their help, it wouldn’t have been possible to be World Champion so I’m really happy for everybody to my mother, to my father because they have done a lot of things to be here and then finally, the hard work pays off so all of us could be rewarded. I’m really happy and I want to keep working and keep dreaming.“
