Charging station caused inferno that destroyed futuristic bikes
|(CNN)A major fire has destroyed the entire roster of electric bikes ahead of the MotoE World Cup — the electric spin off of MotoGP.
The blaze ripped through the newly-built paddock after the first day of preseason testing in Jerez, Spain, with all the 18 bikes caught up in the damage.
MotoE executive director Nicolas Goubert confirmed a prototype charging station caused the inferno that “destroyed the majority of material.”
