GRT YAMAHA WORLDSBK TEAM STARTS ITS 2022 CAMPAIGN IN ARAGÓN

Following the Winter break, the GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team is pleased to return on track and is ready for a thrilling 2022 season. Garrett Gerloff and Kohta Nozane will come back in action alongside the whole team in Aragon on 3rd-4th March at Motorland Aragon to officially begin current year’s campaign.

This will be the first pre-season test in preparation for the 2022 FIM Superbike World Championship as well. After strong work during the whole winter, the GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team cannot wait to push once again on track to demonstrate the job done during the break.

Of course, also the riders could not wait for this moment to come. Kohta Nozane and Garrett Gerloff trained hard over the winter to be fully ready for the beginning of the season. The first test will serve to remove the dust, set the condition and regaining the feeling on the bikes.

With unpredictable weather condition expected this week, testing plans for GRT Yamaha may change day by day. The whole crew is anyway ready for every possible scenario.

Anyway just being again on the bike will be awesome and I cannot wait to see again the whole GRT team, my extended family, again!”

We will begin our campaign from Aragon and first of all we will regain confidence with the R1 and planning the job with my crew. I cannot wait to see again the team after a long time.”

Filippo Conti (Team Manager): “We are ready to come back on track. From Aragon we will start our 2022 campaigns, then we will move to Misano, Barcelona and once again Aragon. This first test will be helpful to remove the dust from the winter over than regaining feeling and getting a good base for the future. The team did not lose time and worked really hard throughout the break to be fully ready for the new season. There’s a lot of energy and everyone cannot wait to start again the job.”
