Stop & Seal’s Robbie Bolger: “We came to Sydney to begin our pre-season testing, and also to evaluate Michelin’s offering for 2024. After spending some time on the Superbike and the bike that will become a World SuperSport machine during the day, we opted to race the ASBK SuperSport machine both for Tom’s confidence, coming back to full strength after his crash, and also to test the new tyre options in race conditions. It’s hard to argue with the performance the Michelin combination offered setting a new lap record, especially considering that as a team, we’re still developing settings for all the bikes”.

Tom Toparis: “I had a great day with the crew from MotoSchool, and the St George Summer Series is so much fun. I felt really good on the bike and we managed to be strong in Qualifying and the two races, not just with track position, but also in times, beating the current ASBK race lap record by more than 3 tenths. It’s the fastest I’ve ever been around SMSP with the soft front in particular giving me a lot of confidence to push hard every lap. We’ve got a lot of work to do before round one, but I’m excited to get there”.
