Paco Castagna has put pen to paper to return to the Stellar Monarchs following his best season in the sport and he will again skipper the side.
The Italian-born rider proved to be one of the most improved riders in the league with his Cab Direct Championship average increasing from 5.30 points to 7.11 points.
He joins Justin Sedgmen, Victor Palovaara, Jonatan Grahn and Kye Thomson in the blue and gold colours and 2025 will be Castagna’s fourth season with the club.
The 30-year-old said: “I’m super, super happy to be back for my fourth year. It has been three good years with very good people.
“I’m looking forward to being in the team again next year. It looks like it has got lots of potential – some new faces, some old faces – I’m very much looking forward to it.”
The popular racer added: “I am proud to be named captain again and everybody saw how much I loved it this year and how much it improved my game.
“April is just around the corner and I’m looking forward to seeing you all.”
