World Superbike: Barni Racing Team Issues Statement On COVID-19

© 2020, Roadracing World Publishing, Inc. From a press release issued By Barni Racing Team:

It’s just a pit stop! We’ll be back on track very soon

Now it’s time to adopt these requirement

#iorestoacasa (translation: #I’mStayingHome)

but it’s just a pit stop!

Together we will overcome this difficult moment, soon we will go back doing what is in our DNA: racing!

And it’ll be amazing to be together.

See you on track!

Marco Barnabo, Team Principal: 

“What we have to do right now, even Superbike teams, is to stay at home. We are forced to stop, as most of our sponsors’ companies. With this simple message we want to show our support, but we are also confident that the sacrifices of these weeks will allow us to return to normal soon. We don’t know yet if it will be possible to respect the following calendar, but I completely agree with Dorna’s willingness to play the championship without cancelling any event. If necessary we could also race in August and in November to recover the rounds postponed.”
