Noah Dettwiler’s Challenging Moto3 Debut Season
Noah Dettwiler faced a tough introduction to the Moto3 class this season. The 19-year-old rider from Solothurn participated in 21 races, managing to secure just 2 points and finishing the championship in 25th place. In light of his performance, expert Tom Lüthi reflects on Dettwiler’s journey and offers insights into areas where both he and his team can improve for the upcoming year.
Insights on Dettwiler’s Performance and Future Improvements
Lüthi comments on Dettwiler’s challenging first season, noting, “It was a difficult start. He actually didn’t begin badly, but then it became tough. It even got worse as the season progressed. This also shows how brutal the field is in the Moto3 class. It takes a lot to really establish oneself there. Noah has been able to learn his lessons. He needs to try to take the positives with him and work hard over the winter so that in the second season, he can make progress step by step.”
Regarding the necessary adjustments for a more successful second year, Lüthi adds, “Noah has tried to adjust some things. However, during an ongoing Moto3 season, that is relatively difficult. The winter is now an opportunity. There will be personnel changes in the environment and within the team. That can sometimes have a big impact. Depending on the working style of the technical crew in the pit, it can show a way where he sees: ‘Here it is progressing or I need to work better on this.'”
Finally, Lüthi discusses Dettwiler’s growth potential within the current “CIP Green Power” team, stating, “It is not a world champion team. Noah cannot compete at the front in this configuration. But it is also a great opportunity for him with the support he has there. He can certainly achieve better results. However, the more difficult the environment is, the more he also has to work. This way, he can get more out of it and develop better for the future.”
