G&S Racing Kawasaki team have a new face in their ranks as they travel to Donington Park for the next round of the Superstock 1000 and 600 championships this weekend.
With Ben Luxton parting company with the Wyberton team, he is replaced in the stock 600 class by young Dutchman Jorel Boerboom – who will make his debut aboard the G&S Racing ZX6R.
It will be Boerboom’s first race on a 600 as he is currently competing in the British Moto3 class.
He has lots to learn in the very competitive class, but is very keen to get under way and took part in a test at Mallory Park last week.
He will join the team’s stock 1000 riders Sammy Coventry and Tom Fisher, who have a 36-lap race at the Leicestershire circuit this weekend. They will come in to refuel and change tyres after 18
laps before returning to the track for the second 18-lapper.
