The Bend Motorsport Park

The brand-new track has been developed surrounding a significant amount of hype. There’s no doubt that this is a world class facility that will deliver an exhilarating experience for rider’s and spectators. The Bend has a number of different configurations, but it is the 4.95km International Circuit that ASBK will race on. 

 This event will be special as ASBK and ARRC will both be racing at the same track over the weekend. In addition, five Australian wildcards will be competing across three ARRC classes. Its sure to be a thrilling four days of on-track action!

 Championship Battle

The YMI Superbike Championship battle is all set up for a brilliant contest and certain contenders stand out from the crowd. As it stands, Troy Herfoss (Penrite Honda, CBR1000SP) leads the points table.

 After taking yet another overall round win at Wakefield, Herfoss will have no shortage of competition at The Bend Motorsport Park. 2017 Champion, Josh Waters (GSX-R1000R) is the closest challenger to Herfoss, despite not having a win under his belt this year. The Bend is the kind of circuit that suits Waters to a tee, so keep an eye out for him.

Third in the standings, Wayne Maxwell (Yamaha Racing Team, YZF-R1M) was fastest at the Official ASBK Test and will be a huge contender for wins. Maxwell despite a disastrous race one at Phillip Island has been in impressive form ever since.
