Australian rider Luke Power will link up with the Motozoo Racing by Puccetti team to ride Kawasaki machinery next season for his maiden campaign on the world stage.

Oli Bayliss (Barni Spark Racing Team) finished out his 2022 World Supersport season in the best possible way, crossing the line in his final race of the year with his best result of 8th.

An emotional end to what has been a triumphant year for the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship, ending with a season finale spectacular at none other than the iconic Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit, for the Grand Ridge Brewery Australian Round.

Alvaro’s Ducati team looked to make frantic changes prior to the race commencing, with a dry line already forming down the main straight. This frantic change was soon realised to be a last minute change for the 2022 World Champion, who gambled the full Pirelli slick tyres for the Tissot Superpole Race.

Our only Australian rider on the grid, Oli Bayliss (BARNI Spark Racing Team) is flying the flag high and proud in the World Supersport Championship. Returning one of the biggest racing names around to the WorldSBK paddock, Oli Bayliss, son of three-time WorldSBK Champion Troy Bayliss, made his full-time debut in the WorldSBK paddock this year.

It was a total celebration for one rider and an utter disaster for another in the penultimate World Supersport race at Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit.
