GHOST Factory Racing Team - Season Kickoff 2024
In February, the Ghost Factory Racing Team was in Spain to make the final preparations for the new season. As part of the training camp, the new kit for the season was also launched in collaboration with the long-time sponsor Maloja.
New Kit Day
For many years, Maloja has been the apparel sponsor of the Ghost Factory Racing Team. The racing kit for 2024 is something special as it embodies the diversity of our athletes. With an average age of 25 and 5 different nationalities, it is one of the most versatile teams on the roster. The jersey aims to represent the personalities of the athletes through small icons. The home countries, tattoos, and hobbies inspired the respective icons. Can you match the icon to the fitting athlete?

The results of the Super Cup are impressive, as the GFRT dominated the podium with Nicole in 2nd place, Anne in 4th place, and Caro in 5th place. Isla finished 8th, while Finja couldn't start due to her crash in training. Congrats to this amazing "warm-up" for the upcoming season!
