Bimota has revealed the bike it will contest the 2025 World Superbike Championship with.

“It’s nice for the team to have a strong weekend, nice to get P4 in the championship, and overall we’re happy.”

"A shame, personally, to be the last weekend in green, but we have a new challenge.”

A fast final sector of the Circuito do Estoril has been pointed out by Alex Lowes as Kawasaki’s main “weakness” at the Portuguese track.

“We improved in some areas and I am happy at what we did together in the team.”

Both Sam Lowes and Alex Lowes have been ruled out of the Aragon World Superbike round through injury.

“You really need to use the corner speed to make up that difference, and when it gets hot I can’t use the front tyre like that.”

Injuries to Alex Lowes’ left leg require a review of his condition on Sunday morning.

“For sure, with a six-time World Champion in the team, the expectation is super high and this puts a lot of pressure to work on them.”
