ASBK FINALE AT SYMMONS PLAINS 8 November 2010 Just one more round for the season! The transporter has made its journey across Bass Strait and the Ducati Motologic Racing Team are soon to follow as they ready themselves for the final round of the ASBK season at Symmons Plains Raceway on Nov 12th-14th. The team enjoyed terrific success at the 2010 MotoGP at Phillip Island last month with #27 Jamie Stauffer taking 1st place in the Superbike class for the event and #33 Jordan Burgess returning to his top 10 form even in the face of a recent surgery. Can the Ducati Motologic team take it to the limit just one more time this season? Round 7 will again be held in conjunction with the V8 Supercars and both riders are looking to finish the season on a high. There are a number of strong contenders taking to the 2.4km circuit this weekend and Stauffer is most definitely one of them. #27 Jamie Stauffer: “I think we have a good chance to take the final round this weekend although the field is very strong. The Ducati 1198 is working really well now, we’ve found a good overall balance and I am confident going into this weekend. We are back on the Dunlop control tyre which I’ve never had any problems with so it’s all looking good. I had a great weekend at Phillip Island for the MotoGP so I’ll just be trying to keep that momentum going for this round at Symmons Plains.” The team owner and manager, Paul Free is simply keen to put the Ducatis back on the track after success at Phillip Island. Paul Free: “I’m really looking forward to the last round with the V8s. Jordy’s foot has healed well after his surgery so he should be able to perform at his best for the final round. The bike set-up is the best it has been for the whole year and I’m confident we could take the 1198 from circuit to circuit with minimal adjustments.” The not-so-Rookie #33 Jordan Burgess is once again ready to push for a top 10 finish for his final campaign for the season. #33 Jordan Burgess: “My foot has healed and I have been able to increase my training over the past month quite a bit so I’m ready to race at Symmons Plains. MotoGP was a pretty good round for me as I recovered from my surgery as I was able to finish in the top 10 once again. I was fairly sore after that event though! Now, I am going into the final round a lot stronger so I will be looking to make more head way into the top 10 ranks.” The program for the event will be jam-packed with both motorbikes and V8s out on track and all involved will be hoping for better weather than was endured at Phillip Island for the previous event which was a gumboot manufacturer’s dream come true. The final round of the ASBK begins on Friday as the bikes take to the track for practice.
