Sykes, like Watanabe, is keen to get to know his team-mate and start his time with Rizla Suzuki. "The show will be my first public appearance as an official Rizla Suzuki rider and that is an exciting prospect," smiled Sykes. "I can't wait to meet Watanabe and spend more time with my team. I've heard the show will have a lot going on and I'm looking forward to having a good look round."

The ever smiling Sykes will return to the show on Wednesday 28th November for the Bennetts British Superbike Awards which will be held on the Black Horse Stage; as well as appearing on the Suzuki stand on Saturday and Sunday 1st and 2nd December.
