2009 Romanian Supersport champion and 2010 Superbike race winner Catalin Cazacu 🔯will take countryman Roby Muresan's seat at PTR Romania Honda a♒t the forthcoming Brno World Supersport round.

27-year-old Cazacu is planning to finish the WSS season with PTR, before mounting a f𒀰ull season challenge in 2012.

"This is a dream come true foꦰr me, not only am I joining the highest profile team in Romania, but I will be starting at what is the neare🌺st home round to Romania at Brno - a track that I know well. My aim is to learn the bike quickly and challenge for good position," he said.

"That is ambitious but I know my own ability and the Brno circuit very well. It is also clཧear from the performances of Sam Lowes, Miguel P🐻raia, James Ellison and Pawel Szkopek that the PTR Romania Honda is a very fast motorcycle capable of running easily in the top 10 and challenging for race wins."

"It has been a long time in discussion with Catalin and now we are delighted to welcome him to the team," said team manager Simon Buckmaster. "He has a lot of confidence and experience at Brno, so we are looking forward to seeing what he can achieve. He is a popular racer in R🧔omania and we hope a lot of his fans come and join us for his first race and keep supporting him throughout the rest of the season, that will help him a lot."

Muresan is hoping to c🅺ome back later in the seaso⛎n and ride alongside Cazacu.

The seventh round of the World Supersport Champi🌼onship takes place at Brno on Sunday 10th July.
