Team ELF KM99 Marc VDS Racing

Randy de Puniet
Born on 14 February 1981 in Andresy, France

At 44, Randy de Puniet has lost none of his passion for motorbike racing. For a long time, the Parisian was the leading French rider in Grand Prix racing. After entering the world championship in 1999 via the 125 class, he went on to shine in the 250 class, taking five victories and finishing third overall in 2004. Moving up to MotoGP with the official Kawasaki team, De Puniet finished on the podium in Japan in 2007. He then raced for LCR Honda for three years before extending his career with Ducati and finally with the ART Aspar team. He continued his career in Superbike while participating in the development of the new Suzuki MotoGP machine. In 2016, Randy made a successful switch to Endurance racing with the Kawasaki SRC team, finishing second in the Bol d'Or and claiming podium finishes again the following season at Le Mans and Suzuka. He then went on to ride for Ducati, Pierre Chapuis' Yamaha team and again with the Kawasaki SRC team. The Parisian, who has eight EWC podiums to his name, joined the KM99 team last year.

Florian Marino
Born on June 3, 1993 in Cannes, France

Florian Marino was not even ten years old when he took part in his first motocross races. He then switched to speed. He trained with Fabio Quartararo and competed in the Conti Cup, which he won in 2005. Selected for the Red Bull Rookies Cup, he took part in the competition in 2008 and 2009. Tenth in the first year, he finished fifth in the second with a fine victory on the Brno circuit. That same year, he began racing in Superstock 600. Entered by the Ten Kate team, he contested the European Championship in 2010. He finished second with seven podiums and three wins. He then switched to Supersport, before deciding to try his luck in BSB in England. Unfortunately, repeated injuries prevented him from making the most of his talent. Back in Supersport, then in Superstock 1000, Florian eventually found his way into Endurance, first with the Louit Moto team in 2019, then with the Viltais team. His outstanding performances earned him a ticket with the SRC Kawasaki team before joining the KM99 team in 2023.

Jeremy Guarnoni
Born 28 February 1993 in Toulouse, France

Trained in Spain, Jeremy Guarnoni made his name in Superstock. European 600 champion in 2010, with five wins and eight podiums in ten races, he also shone in Superstock 1000, winning on several occasions. French Superbike Champion in 2018, the year he made his Endurance debut with the Kawasaki SRC team, the Toulousan has also won races in SWBK. His greatest achievement was clinching the EWC World Championship title in 2019 at the end of a full season which saw him win the Le Mans 24 Hours with Kawasaki. After moving to BMW, Jeremy Guarnoni added further victories to his list of achievements, but failed to win another world title. Now a team-mate of Randy de Puniet and Florian Marino in the KM99 ELF Marc VDS Racing team, he is not giving up hope of succeeding.
