15 March 2022 – The day before, the excitement was already sky high: “BK Corse returns to the United States. We are pleased to be able to confirm the presence of our own Tommaso Marcon at the Daytona 200! Tommy will be supported and followed by our American partner Robem Engineering in collaboration with BK Corse; a way to pursue the international path of the Aprilia 660 Trophy. We’ll be at the track on 10, 11, and 12 March…Ready to support Tommy and the BK Corse colours.

Enthusiasm rewarded by Tommaso Marcon's performance, determined to take home a podium position after the adrenaline charged Race 1, where the team Robem Engineering Aprilia RS 660 put on a great show. In Race 2, Marcon outdid himself and this was his comment on his social media accounts about “the American undertaking”: PODIUM IN DAYTONA. INCREDIBLE emotion to be able to bring Italy on the podium of the world capital of speed! Being able to sign the finish line of the track, as a tradition after a podium here in Daytona, was a dream in the drawer! It was a really intense weekend in which we suffered a lot the drafts, my @aprilia was excellent as usual between the corners but we had some problems with the top speed, which did not allow us to win! Anyway, INCREDIBLE experience. Thanks to @aprilia@bkcorse and @robemengineering for this super weekend and @motoamerica for having me!”
Well deserved applause goes to Jody Barry who finished ahead of him on the 2nd step of the podium in Race 2.
Tommaso Marcon had already raced in the last two rounds of the 2021 MotoAmerica Twins Cup Championship – the début year for the Aprilia RS 660 in the category – in New Jersey and in Alabama, joining the American Robem Engineering team.
