Two-time champion Max Biaggi has ruled outꦦ making a return to the W🌃orld Superbike Championship in 2015, insisting he is focused only on testing duties.

The Italian retired after his second WSBK title in 2012, but⛎ has maintained a relationship with Aprilia Racing and has embarked on a handful of testing outings, most recently in 𓆏Portimao and Jerez.

Helping the manufacturer with its World Superbike and burgeoning MotoGP 🌄effort, Biaggi's increased presence in recent months had raised speculation that he may be considering a return to the series with a handf𓆏ul of wild-card outings on the RSV4.

However, the I𓆏talian has refuted those claims, insisting he has no interest in returning to racing and is happy with his curre🐼nt role.

"I'🤡m sorry to say this but I won't be doing any wildcard ride this year," he ad𓃲ded. "I am just a test rider so my goal is to put in as many laps as possible while evaluating new components and settings for both the MotoGP and World Superbike motorcycles."
