The renewal of Alex Lowes’ contract with Kawasaki for the 2025 Superbike World Championship was announced this Friday, leading the rider to the new project Bimota by Kawasaki Racing Team.
Despite the team staying the same, it’s a new beginning with a new bike coming next year. The British rider believes the conditions are ideal for starting off strong:
– I believe this opportunity has come at the correct time. Along with Bimota, Kawasaki are putting huge effort into this new project. Utilising Kawasaki’s nearly 40 years of Superbike racing knowledge and success and also my personal experience with different manufacturers I believe this gives us the best chance to start from the best possible position with the new bike. I have shown that I am still improving and still fast and competitive at the front of WorldSBK.
Lowes then shared his gratitude and emphasized that for now, the focus remains on the current season: ‘A big thank you to KMC, Bimota and Provec Racing for the faith shown in me. I’m happy to continue to be part of our racing family! I’m enjoying my racing a lot and we still have a lot to focus on during 2024. We had a nice start to the season with a couple of race victories but now our focus is on Misano’.
