New Kawasaki WSS line-up eager for season to start
Kenan is already a double championship winning legend in the WSS paddock and will return after a season spent in the Moto2 Championship. He has already had the chance to test his new machine and like Morais(photo) has set laps at Aragon and Valencia in Spain in readiness for the onrushing campaign, which starts in Australia in late February.
Vanni Lorenzini (Team Manager): "In testing Kenan has confirmed he is a great champion, turning in strong performances right away. Sheridan, still short of experience, has taken advantage of his track time on the bike and was very close to his team-mate in lap times. We now have a testing ban for a month and that means that we will make the maximum of our workshop time and material to prepare for more testing in the New Year, and then the start of the new season. We will most probably return to testing in January, at Almeria on the 19th and 20th."
Steve Guttridge (Kawasaki Europe Race Planning Manager): "We have enjoyed a lot of success over the past few seasons working closely in WSS with our Provec team and I would like to thank the whole team and their riders for the efforts they have made in that time to put Kawasaki on the top. Team Kawasaki DeltaFin will now be Kawasaki's official team in this class. Already they have put together a solid new team and have started testing their new race machine and rider combination for next year. By signing Kenan they have brought a multiple World Champion back into the World Supersport mix and his ambition to win the title is very much the same as ours! Sheridan's strengths, I believe, are firmly recognised on the Ninja ZX-6R and he has a depth of experience riding one for us, having won himself many national titles on that machine back in South Africa."
