In what is set to be one of th🤪e strongest WorldSBK rider line-ups ever, a total of 23 riders including six full-time rookies will line-up in Phillip Island for the season-opener next month. 

Those six rookies include the likes of MotoGP race winner 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Danilo Petrucci, former MotoGP rider and Moto2 champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Remy Gardner, back-to-back WorldSSP champion and 2022 MotoE winner 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Dominique Aegerter, British Superbike champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Bradley Ray, Eric Granado and Lorenzo Baldassarri.

• Provisional MotoGP team launch dates confirmed with Yamah🐬a up 🌠first
• Pedrosa never felt ‘inferior’ to Mar🀅quez, but ‘he did things I couldn’t match’

Petrucci joins Barni Racing Ducati 🐽after spending one season in MotoAmerica where he came within 20 points of winning the title. 

For Gardner, Aegerter and Ray - all three riders will be aboard Yamaha machinery as the latter joined Motoxracing, while Gard🐎ner andཧ Aegerter will be teammates in what is an all-new GRT Yamaha line-up.

Every rider on the grid is contracted until the end of this season, with the exception being six-time WorldSBK champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea, after the Kawasaki𝄹 rider signed a multi-year d꧋eal midway through last season. 

The top three teams in 2022 all remain unchanged as 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista looks to defend his crown alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Michael Ruben Rinaldi.

For Pata Yamaha, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Toprak Razgatlioglu will be eager to r﷽egain the championship in what could be his last season in Superbikes. A move to MotoGP continues to be rumoured for 2024 and should Yamaha return to having two teams/four bikes - which is their intention - then that possibility will only increase. 

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Andrea Locatelli goes into his third season with the team in 2023, while 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Lowes is set for his fourth campaign with KRT.

The factory BMW team is also unchanged for 2023 as 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Scott Redding will again lead the German manufacturer alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Michael Van Der Mark, who en🎃dured a nightma🐎re 202 season due to injury.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Loris Baz has also been retained at the Bonovo Action BMW team, however, there is one change which involves 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Garrett Gerloff moving across from GRT Yamaha to replace new team manager Eugene L♒averty. 

Like BMW, Hond🍌a have just one change which sees Granado come across from MotoE to partner Hafizh Syahrin.

Here is the full 2023 WorldSBK line-up.
