]]> A superb final round clean sweep from Troy Herfoss in the 2023 mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship, presented by Motul, at The Bend has secured the Queenslander a stunning third Australian Superbike title!

Troy Herfoss has done it again! Claiming the 2023 ASBK championship in style at The Bend.
Troy Herfoss has done it again! Claiming the 2023 ASBK championship in style at The Bend.

Read the full race reports from the weekend here…

ASBK Alpinestars Superbike

Josh Waters. Cru Halliday. Peerless across every measure, but with championship rival Josh Waters (McMartin Racing with K-Tech Ducati V4R) alongside him on the front row the celebrations will be short and sweet for Herfoss.

 

The Queenslander turned up the wick on his Penrite Honda CBR1000RR-R in the second Alpinestars Superbike qualifying session at The Bend, and the spoils were spectacular: the first rider to go under the 1m50s bracket. Mike Jones. Broc Pearson.
Troy Herfoss. Herfoss defeated Waters in a tight race one finish, before a mid-race crash from Waters in the decider took all the pressure off the new 2023 champion, who signed off from his career with Honda in fairytale fashion. Herfoss’ previous ASBK titles came in 2016 and 2018, while it’s now a dominant 12 championships for Honda in the 35-year history of Australia’s premier road racing category. Race two saw Stauffer and Staring both crash out within the first two laps, but the most telling departure was Waters after losing the front end on his V4R at turn six while in second place. The opening 11-lap race saw Herfoss lead from start to finish, with Waters running line astern for the majority of the journey save for a brief period when defending ASBK champion Mile Jones slotted into second.

Michelin Supersport

Ty Lynch. Olly Simpson. Michelin Supersport is also delicately poised, with returning internationals Harrison Voight and Tom Toparis leading the qualifying charts ahead of the three riders vying for the championship: Olly Simpson, Cameron Dunker and Ty Lynch. Sunday Supersport 600 The Bend. Tom Toparis. The final race of the year was almost a mirror image of the opener as Simpson and Voight diced with each other and Dunker eventually settled into fourth behind Jonathan Nahlous (Complete AV YZF-R6) to wrap up the championship. In race one, Voight led off the line but it wasn’t long before Simpson muscled his way into the lead with the knowledge that he had to win both races for any chance of wresting the title from Dunker’s grasp.

Supersport 300 & R3 Cup

Brandon Demmery. Cameron Swain. Marcus Hamod is the 2023 Supersport 300 champion after a 3-1-1 scorecard in the final round saw him finish on 327pts, just in front of Cameron Swain (323). Brandon Demmery (300pts) was third.

SUREFLIGHT SUPERBIKE MASTERS

Only one 2023 champion was crowned today: Keo Watson in the popular Sureflight Superbike Masters class. Sureflight Superbike Masters. Keo Watson (Yamaha FZR1000) already had the overall title in his keeping, and he finished first and second on Sunday to increase his lead in the final standings to a whopping 77pts (228 to 151) over Murray Clark (Suzuki GSX-R1127). Sureflight Superbike Masters. Sureflight Superbike Masters. Sureflight Superbike Masters.

Sunday saw Bautista become the most successful WorldSBK rider in history at Phillip Island with his eighth victory at the iconic circuit... An incredible move at Turn 3 allowed Bautista to claim victory using the #1 plate after a wet first race of the year in Australia started the season in style. Remy Gardner (GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team) took 12th on his WorldSBK debut on home soil, finishing ahead of teammate Dominique Aegerter in 13th. Bautista started from second place but got the holeshot at the start of the race before being passed by Rea, who took his 378th WorldSBK start in Race 1 and moved ahead of Troy Corser. A delayed start to Race 1 in the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship provided plenty of drama as rain came down before the start of the race. Behind the leading duo, it was a bit of a lonely race for polesitter Toprak Razgatlioglu (Pata Yamaha Prometeon WorldSBK) as he finished in third place but six seconds down on Bautista. Danilo Petrucci (Barni Spark Racing) was another who gained places throughout the race as he took seventh place. Toprak Razgatlioglu was fastest on the opening day of testing ahead of Alvaro Bautista and Michael Ruben Rinaldi.

Iker Lecuona (Team HRC) was able to fight his way up to sixth place behind Oettl and Bassani while double WorldSSP Champion Dominique Aegerter.

Reigning Champion Alvaro Bautista battled his way back from fourth on the grid to claim Race 1 victory in the Netherlands ahead of Rea and Razgatlioglu.

Rea’s second was his 247th in WSBK, as well as his 24th at Assen which puts the track level with Aragon and Portimao. Rea crashed out in the first half of the race, promoting Bassani to third, Locatelli then fought for the podium spot... The battle for the lead involved Bautista, Razgatlioglu and Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK) in the early stages of the race with all three taking their chance to lead throughout the race. Bassani was fifth at the end of the race, ahead of Dominique Aegerter (GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team), who passed Lowes and Redding in the closing stages, in sixth. Reigning Champion Alvaro Bautista battled his way back from fourth on the grid to claim Race 1 victory in the Netherlands ahead of Rea and Razgatlioglu. History was made in WorldSBK at Assen as Ducati claimed their 400th WorldSBK win after Bautista’s hat-trick. The shortened Tissot Superpole Race in the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship was a fierce fight between Alvaro Bautista (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) and Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK). As the race approached the final few laps, Bautista started to pull out a gap over Rea to claim victory in the Superpole Race and claim first on the grid for Race 2.

As the lights went out, Toprak Razgatlioglu (Pata Yamaha Prometeon WorldSBK) got the holeshot to lead into Turn 1.

Axel Bassani (Motocorsa Racing) went head to head with Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK). Bautista’s victory gave him his 46th win in WorldSBK and is now on a streak of 10 consecutive wins in WorldSBK, while he also has 14 wins in 15 races this season with his fourth hat-trick of the season. Bautista was one of two riders to use the SCX tyre as everyone else opted for the new SCQ at Misano. Bautista and Rinaldi gave the Italian fans something to cheer by taking a race one Ducati 1-2 at Misano. As the race settled down, Bautista and Rinaldi were both able to gap Razgatlioglu in first and second place respectively to claim a home victory for Ducati on a special liveried Panigale V4 R. Razgatlioglu had to withstand some early pressure from Danilo Petrucci (Barni Spark Racing Team) and Axel Bassani (Motocorsa Racing) but the 2021 Champion was able to resist that pressure before pulling out a gap over his rivals.

Bautista got the holeshot in the shortened 15-lap race, but his race unravelled as soon as it started. He came off his Panigale V4 R at Turn 3 and into the gravel, ending his run of feature length wins in 2023.

Second gave Razgatlioglu his 100th WorldSBK podium and his 16th consecutive rostrum finish; the joint sixth-longest all-time streak. The reigning Champion battled hard for victory at Imola as he edged closer to history while Toprak Razgatlioglu claimed his 100th podium on Saturday. Rea racked up his 252nd podium, while Razgatlioglu and Rea have now shared the podium 75 times together. The opening laps were a sensational fight in front of the passionate Italian fans. There was little to separate the pair throughout the first two-thirds but an error from the Turk allowed Bautista to pass him on the run down to Rivazza 1. On Lap 8, Bassani made his move on Razgatlioglu for first. He looked to overtake into the Villeneuve chicane first but that didn’t work out, before he went up the inside of his rival at the left-hand hairpin of Tosa. The Turk was able to hold on despite last-lap pressure from the defending Champion to claim his third win of the season and close the gap in the Championship standings by three points. Toprak Razgatlioglu denied Axel Bassani an emotional maiden victory but gained 25 points on Alvaro Bautista as the reigning Champion crashed out. The Superpole Race was a stunning affair in Italy as Razgatlioglu beat Bautista by just 0.244s to secure a win. Razgatlioglu was able to claim his 36th career win and his 102nd podium, while it was also Yamaha’s 410th in WSBK.

The opening laps proved to be beneficial for the wet tyre runners with Axel Bassani (Motocorsa Racing) storming away from fourth on the grid to have a six second lead over Remy Gardner (GYTR GRT Yamaha) at the end of Lap 2. The Spaniard put Razgatlioglu under relentless pressure before the #54 crashed on Lap 17 at Turn 3 to hand Bautista a 25-point swing in the title race. Remy Gardner (GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team) concluded the strongest weekend of his WorldSBK career with sixth as he finished three seconds down on Rinaldi. Bautista didn’t get away well from the line as the lights went out but still found himself into the lead heading into Turn 1, before he tried to pull out a gap. The win was his 50th in WorldSBK, but it was also a historic one: the 18th win of his season means he has now won more races in one season than any other rider. Scott Redding (ROKiT BMW Motorrad) also didn’t stop as he claimed fourth place despite starting from the pitlane. WorldSBK MOST Race One. WorldSBK MOST Race One. Rea was able to go with the wet tyre runners in the opening laps while other intermediate riders dropped down, including Razgatlioglu, before battling back.

‘

The race was reduced to 20 laps after a technical problem when riders took their positions on the grid following the warm-up lap, with the start delayed by a few minutes and a lap lost from the original race distance.

Jonathan Rea secured third after making gains before an early-race fight with teammate Alex Lowes, who initially passed the six-time Champion at Turn 5 for third, before falling behind the Ulsterman.  Two laps later and the two Champions were side-by-side throughout much of the lap, with Razgatlioglu holding on to second place before Rea tried another move a lap later. Alvaro Bautista (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) bounced back to claim victory in Race 2 at the Circuit de Nevers Magny-Cours as he took advantages of his rivals battling behind him. The #65 looked to overtake his rival on Lap 3 through Turn 4 and into Turn 5 but the Yamaha star cut back, before Rea made a similar move on Lap 6 and made it stick. Razgatlioglu now has 107 podiums to his name, only two fewer than Carl Fogarty, while Rea’s moved onto 259 podiums. Six-time Champion Rea withstood a late charge from Andrea Locatelli (Pata Yamaha Prometeon WorldSBK) to claim third and his 258th podium and his 20th at the iconic French venue. The #1 put in a series of race lap records to close the gap to his title rival but the 2021 Champion claimed victory by a second to become the first rider to win four consecutive races at Magny-Cours. There was drama everywhere you looked in France was the title battle closed up again with Razgatlioglu winning ahead of Bautista.

Tissot Superpole Jerez. At Turn 13, Bautista looked for a move on the inside before the Yamaha cut back to stay ahead on the straight. Tissot Superpole Jerez. A race that will live long in the memory: Bautista victorious in unbelievable Razgatlioglu fight with 38 passes for the lead in the final 10 laps, Rea tumbles on Kawasaki farewell. Razgatlioglu came home in second despite his valiant efforts in the early stages of Race 1, with the Turk finishing just over a second behind the now double WorldSBK Champion, with the #54 immediately congratulating his rival. Bautista got the holeshot when the 20-lap race got underway and immediately looked to pull out a gap over his rivals. The #77 tumbled down the order in the opening stages after suffering a technical problem... The two-time Champion continued his stunning form with victory in the 8-lap race... Dominique Aegerter stormed to a maiden podium after he finished 1.5 seconds away from the two-time Champion.

2023 Season Best Shots

Having started his season off positive with a seventh in the opener in Portugal, Miller's continued to make solid progress.

Rins was in a race against himself and the couple of seconds he had in hand, with some history waiting to be made.

Rins was in a race against himself and the couple of seconds he had in hand, with some history waiting to be made. Saturday saw Rins on the podium, surprise errors at the front, some serious charges through the field and a single point in it at the top of the standings... The race began as the classic Moto3 freight train, but bit by bit a front, smaller group managed to escape: Sasaki, Masia, Artigas, Moreira, Daniel Holgado (Red Bull KTM Tech3) and Ortola. Marini brought home his Ducati for second and a first Grand Prix podium in the MotoGP class. 539 days and 24 Grands Prix have passed since Honda were last on top, and Alex Rins (LCR Honda Castrol) has brought that long wait to an end with a truly impressive ride to glory at the Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas. Back at the front, Bagnaia began to stretch out the field as he put down some lightning-fast pace. The Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas did not disappoint as MotoGP leaves the USA. Behind Rins' headline-grabber, Marini made his own as he held station in second once he was past Quartararo, and the Italian takes his first Grand Prix podium! As the lights went out, it was the perfect start for Pecco as the Italian took the holeshot, with Rins in hot pursuit. Bagnaia was untouchable once again. Getting on the front early and staying there... Rins was unstoppable, simply blitzing the field and having some spare time to celebrate. Martin managed to score his second Tissot Sprint podium of the 2023 season! There was adrenaline from the moment the lights went out for the Tissot Sprint at the Grand Prix of The Americas. Marini was shadowing Quartararo's every move though, and with 3.5s to the battle for 4th behind, the duo were putting the hammer down in hopes of catching the LCR Honda man out front.

Miller and Binder were ragged perfection in the lead though, sliding their way around in a two-man show for a few laps.

Ducati and KTM test the limits of awesomeness in Jerez, with some sideways poetry, pitch perfect defence and a dash of chaos for some big names. The KTMs still began to pull away from the two Ducatis though, and by four laps to go the gap was half a second. Bagnaia was forced to drop one position after that earlier contact, letting Miller back past. Split by just two tenths over the line, it was fitting it went to the wire after a stunning race. It was a KTM one-two once again, but Martin soon got back past Aleix Espargaro to start bothering Miller again. Miller took third place and that's now premier class podiums with three different bikes, as well as his first GP rostrum visit with KTM. take two was another KTM show from lights out as they slotted into a 1-2, with Binder leading Miller as Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing) slotting into third. Ready to race? You bet. The KTMs attacked straight away on take two, with Binder grabbing the lead from Miller and both Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing) and Bagnaia also slicing past polesitter Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia Racing). Miller unfortunately ended up letting the Ducati through, but still did a spectacular job to stay on the podium. Pure gold! Binder vs Miller vs Bagnaia lights up the Tissot Sprint in Spain.
Marco Bezzecchi made history on Sunday as the race winner at the 1000th FIM Grand Prix! Check out all the action from Le Mans! A four-rider battle for victory had formed as Miller now found himself with Marquez, Bezzecchi, and Martin for company, before Bezzecchi pushed his way through on Marc Marquez – and dropped the Spaniard from 2nd to 4th. Bezzecchi is now just one point behind Championship leader Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) after the Italian crashed out of the race in a dramatic clash with Aprilia Racing's Maverick Viñales… With six to go, Martin thought it was time to pounce on Marc Marquez. The Spaniard tried to push his way through on the eight-time World Champion, but the Repsol Honda man was not giving in easy. With 15 laps to go, Bezzecchi had 1.2s in his pocket to Marquez behind, who was 0.5s up the road from Martin, who had found his way through on Miller. Martin ensured he’s the top scorer at Le Mans this year, and then the home hero reached the flag. The grid formed in front of the biggest crowd MotoGP has ever seen and it was Marc Marquez who shot into the lead as Bagnaia dropped down the order to P5. The Tissot Sprint at Le Mans was another jaw dropper throughout the field, and we have a new name in the history books as Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing) put in an inch-perfect ride to take his first Sprint win in MotoGP. Binder was on the move, pushing his way past Marini to set the fastest lap and latch himself onto the back of the top 3. Marquez pushed his way through at the Dunlop chicane with 8 laps to go... Martin crossed the line to take his first Sprint win as well as his first Grand Prix points at Le Mans, bouncing back in style as Binder took second to gain in the title fight, ahead of Bagnaia completing the podium. It was Bagnaia who stormed off the line to take the holeshot as the lights went out, whilst Jack Miller shot into P2.

As ever, Marc Marquez was on the absolute limit of his Honda machine. But it wasn’t quite enough at Mugello as the Spaniard ran wide at the final turn and crashed out on the dirty part of the tarmac with 17 laps remaining.

The front two began to break away as Bagnaia attempted to stretch out the field, with Martin clinging onto the coattails of Pecco as chaos started to unfold behind in the battle for third. As ever, Marc Marquez was on the absolute limit of his Honda machine. But it wasn’t quite enough at Mugello as the Spaniard ran wide at the final turn and crashed out on the dirty part of the tarmac with 17 laps remaining. Bagnaia kept it pitch perfect to manage the gap ahead of Martin. It was down to only a second on the final lap, however, as the number 89 pushed on and Zarco homed in on him in turn, but Bagnaia kept it calm. The pack began to shuffle as the rain came down on the far section of the circuit with nine laps to go. Chaos at Mugello! Saturday proved Ducati is a force to be reckoned with by locking out the podium on Saturday. The fight for the final spot in the top 3 was decided by less than a tenth of a second! The pressure was on for Bagnaia but the #1 responded in true Champions' fashion stretching out the field with four laps remaining. Bagnaia put the hammer down setting the fastest lap of the race, giving himself some breathing space. Bagnaia, Marc Marquez, Martin, Luca Marini, Bezzecchi, and Miller was the order the first time across the line.

Jorge Martin continues his roll to defeat the reigning Champion, with Miller putting KTM back on the rostrum as Marc Marquez suffers a tough Tissot Sprint.

Lap 3, Turn 12 – a change of the lead. Martin pounced on Pecco and with it, the Sprint victor set the fastest lap. In one of the closest ever finishes at the Sachsenring, Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing) came out on top against reigning Champion Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) in a duel that went right to the wire. As Martin crossed the line for another stunning Sprint win, Bagnaia and Miller secured their visits to the rostrum. So that's that. An instant classic and a maximum of 37 points means it’s a perfect weekend for Martin in Germany. Martin edged it by a slender 0.064s as a wonderful battle lit up the Sachsenring! Miller got a rocket ship launch on the KTM RC16 once again, he had the inside line for Turn 1 but Bagnaia hung it around the outside to hit the front at Turn 2. Martin and Bagnaia looked like they were out of reach for the chasing pack. Binder was 2.9s adrift with 17 laps to go, and Bagnaia starting to put pressure on the shoulders of Martin. Lap 6 ticked by and Martin was asking big questions – a 1:20.990 saw the Spaniard sit eight tenths clear of Bagnaia, who had also now overtaken Miller. What do you get when you add the two riders at the top of the standings to a record crowd at the Liqui Moly Motorrad Grand Prix Deutschland? One hell of a show! Bagnaia tagged the back of the Pramac ahead, with no harm done but some metres lost for the reigning Champion. The race was really, really on now.

Bagnaia did hold on to a crucial P3 as Martin made no mistake to cap off a sensational weekend. Bezzecchi bagged P2 despite his injured hand to gain ground in the title chase. Disaster then struck for Binder at Turn 14 on Lap 8. The KTM star was down at the tight right-hand hairpin as his podium hopes ended, handing Pedrosa the lead KTM baton. Pedro Acosta (Red Bull KTM Ajo) was back in business at Misano, putting in an inch-perfect performance to take victory. David Alonso (Gaviota GASGAS Aspar Team), take a bow. The young Colombian takes his third victory in four races after beating Jaume Masia (Leopard Racing) and Deniz Öncü (Red Bull KTM Ajo) in a phenomenal Moto3 battle. The number 89 is unmatched to deny Bezzecchi a home win as the reigning Champion fights off a Legend and Binder throwns down with everyone else in the Sprint. Martin led by a second over Bezzecchi as we strapped in for a KTM vs Bagnaia scrap for the final podium place. With five laps to go, Martin’s gap to Bezzecchi was up to 0.8s as Pedrosa reeled in Bagnaia in by 0.4s. Martin got the exact launch he’d have wanted from pole as he grabbed the holeshot into Turn 1, as Bagnaia powered his way around the outside of Bezzecchi to grab an early P2. Martin’s lead grew to over a second for the first time as the #89 began to get the hammer down. Bagnaia was fading. Pedrosa was coming. 0.7s split the double World Champion from the three-time World Champion, with Maverick Viñales (Aprilia Racing). Just like he did in the Tissot Sprint, Martin got a perfect launch and pocketed the holeshot as Bezzecchi and Bagnaia slotted in behind.

Alex Marquez takes to the top step for the first time ever in MotoGP during the Sprint Race at Sepang!

Pecco held on to third against Marco Bezzecchi (Mooney VR46 Racing Team) but Martin wasn’t so lucky, getting shuffled back behind the Italian and left with a little more work to do from fifth. MotoGP Sepang Sprint. With five to go Alex Marquez struck with a brutal, clean move for the lead. And then came Martin attacking Bagnaia. The rider who got the best start on the front row was actually Enea Bastianini (Ducati Lenovo Team). the Beast played it to perfection for teammate Bagnaia as the Championship leader didn't come under attack as he grabbed the holeshot. MotoGP Sepang Sprint. The number 89 was all over the number 1 but he attacked and was denied, attacked and was denied as the two scythed round Sepang near side-by-side. It was stunning, and it could prove important in terms of more than just points. At the front, Bastianini pounded on. With just over a second in hand, the Beast was keeping very calm as he carried on. Pecco vs Martin. The fight for the 2023 MotoGP World Championship is now a duel, and it’s a duel split by just 14 points.

For the final and most important time in 2023 it was time to race. Bagnaia got the dream getaway from pole to grab a crucial holeshot, with Martin also making a fantastic launch to grab an early P2.

For the final and most important time in 2023 it was time to race. Bagnaia got the dream getaway from pole to grab a crucial holeshot, with Martin also making a fantastic launch to grab an early P2. With Martin out, no matter what Bagnaia did, he would be the 2023 World Champion. ‘MARTIN OUT’ was signalled on his pit board as the two KTMs of Binder and Miller were now first and second, with Zarco and Viñales chasing Pecco. For the final and most important time in 2023 it was time to race. Bagnaia got the dream getaway from pole to grab a crucial holeshot, with Martin also making a fantastic launch to grab an early P2. With three laps left, 0.3s was still the gap between Pecco and Zarco. But Di Giannantonio was on a mission. Following a highly dramatic Gran Premio Motul de la Comunitat Valenciana, the 2023 MotoGP World Champion is Francesco Bagnaia  after Jorge Martin  crashed out of the race following an incident at Turn 4 with Marc Marquez. Five to go. The gap in the Championship was 14 points between Sprint leader Martin and fifth place Pecco Martin soon got back past Marquez as we watched Bagnaia drop into the clutches of the group behind that included Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP™) – the Frenchman making a phenomenal start. Bagnaia got a dream launch from P2 to grab the holeshot into Turn 1 as Martin also got away well. Maverick Viñales immediately bit back at Turn 2 with a late lunge on Pecco though as Binder nearly slipped up the inside of Martin. Martin led Binder, with Bagnaia still holding Diggia behind him. Halfway around the lap, Binder still wasn’t close enough. Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac) made super Saturday into statement Saturday at the Qatar Airways Grand Prix of Qatar. The leading duo were locked together at the start of the final lap, with Diggia shadowing Martin’s every move. It was an immediate shot of adrenaline in the title fight in Turn 1 too, with Marini getting the holeshot as Alex Marquez slotted into second – but there was contact right behind the two between Martin and Bagnaia. The next move saw Diggia attack Marini for second, and from there the number 49 set off after Martin. Martin hit back not long after, putting him right back on the rear wheel of Bagnaia. On Lap 2, it got seriously close again as the number 89 opened the door for himself and made it through, with Diggia trying to do the same. The battle for victory, however, was now a duel: Bagnaia vs Diggia. The laps ticked down and the gap went out to a few tenths then back down, but no move was made in a tense game of chess. Right at the front though, Bagnaia held firm with a few tenths in hand – ahead of quite a squabble too. Diggia got through on Marini and Alex Marquez tried to follow suit, but had to wait a few corners before he got through. As the lights went out, everything changed in an instant. Split by just 0.022 and one position on the grid, by the exit of Turn 1 Bagnaia had shot through to steal the holeshot from Marini as Martin suffered a difficult start. At the front, Bagnaia and Di Giannantonio still had Binder for company, but the gap would start to increase from there on out as the KTM was left to battle Alex Marquez and Marini instead.

]]> The WorldSBK circus arrived at Circuito de Jerez – Angel Nieto on Wednesday for a busy two day test, with some new and refreshing faces on the track, particularly for us Aussie’s, Remy Gardner, who finished day two 10th fastest and came to grips with his YZF-R1 very quickly… Report: WorldSBK Press

Remy Gardner quickly came to grips with the Yamaha YZF-R1 superbike, ending the second day tenth fastest in his debut in the championship.

Day One testing for the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship at the Circuito de Jerez – Angel Nieto was a busy affair as teams and riders got their first 2023 running under their belt. 2021 Champion Toprak Razgatlioglu (Pata Yamaha WorldSBK) topped the times ahead of reigning Champion Alvaro Bautista (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) by two tenths of a second, with Bautista crashing in the afternoon, while rookie Danilo Petrucci (Barni Spark Racing Team) shone brightly on his debut.

Three rookies were taking part in the Jerez test as they got adjusted to new surroundings, teams and bikes. Petrucci took sixth spot at the end of the day with a 1’39.790s, just over a second slower than Razgatlioglu. Dominique Aegerter (GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK) was ninth fastest on his first day in dry conditions with the Yamaha R1, lapping in 1’39.934, as he worked on linkage, swingarm and electronic components.

Teammate Remy Gardner was close behind in 14th place and six tenths back from Aegerter. Baldassarri (GMT94 Yamaha), learning the Championship and bike along with his team, was the lowest-placed rookie with 19th place as he took to the Yamaha R1 for the first time.

Toprak Razgatlioglu (Pata Yamaha WorldSBK) was able to bounce back from his crash in the morning to record the fastest time with a 1’31.269s set in the afternoon; attempting to break the 1’37s barrier. Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK) was second on Day 2, less than a tenth behind Razgatlioglu while 2022 WorldSBK Champion Alvaro Bautista (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) took third place.

Aegerter’s GRT Yamaha teammate, Remy Gardner, took tenth spot but was only three tenths slower than Aegerter at the end of Day 2; showing how tight the WorldSBK field is in 2023.

Most teams will now be headed to Autódromo Internacional do Algarve in Portugal for another two-day test to be held on Tuesday 31st January and Wednesday 1st February.

Luca and Zane put in an awesome effort to bring the little Yamaha YZF-R15 home for a second place finish in the Six Hour Bucket Enduro.

After Luca set a scorching time and qualifying second on the Saturday. Both Luca and Zane kept the bike upright for over 300 laps around the 1.4km tight and twisty track to bring the micro machine home for a podium finish. Battling with the other top two teams, the Shark Silkoline entry were just too quick to catch, with Keo Watson setting the 150cc Production record on lap 297!

Entering in as a two man team was never going to be easy, especially going up against four man rosters.

1 Shark Silkoline – Yamaha YZF-R15 – 311 Laps
2 Team BikeReview – Yamaha YZF-R15 – 308 Laps
3 Shark Leathers – Yamaha YZF-R15 – 306 Laps

The idea for bucket racing is to spend as little as possible. The endurance side of it encourages engines to stay stock. Pitlane chaos was minimal thanks to mandatory one minute stops. Somehow we went out two seconds early, rules are rules so we had to come back in for an entire minute. We have found the cheapest way to go racing, and probably the best cost to track time ratio ever! A mad dash for the bikes! We got a blistering start to snatch first, Keo fought straight back to take control of the race.
Keo Watson, Team Shark Silkoline. Bike trouble struck, the little BikeReview Bridgestone Yamaha YZF-R15 was starting to bog down. Losing power on and off, we conceded third to Team Shark Leathers. John Stamnas, Team Shark Leahers. Keo Watson clearly knows his way around Pheasant Wood, setting a 150cc production record time on lap 297!
Luca took the final stint on to claw back some of the time lost throughout the day. However, Keo was on fire by the end of the day. Entering in as a two man team was never going to be easy, especially going up against four man rosters.
Monster effort, by the end of the day Zane was sitting upright just trying to survive the dying hours. The number 33 bike that Keo prepped for us ended up selling for only $2500, cheap for a proven top-end finisher...
Lachlan Hill, Team Shark Silkoline. Mitch Khune, Team Shark Leathers.
150cc and Commuterlite Pheasant Wood Six Hour Endurance podium. Team Bridgestone BikeReview in second place. A very tired Team BikeReview!
