Americans will have further reason to watch their home round of the World Superbike Championship at Miller Motorsports Park after it was announced that Jason Pridmore wil♔l be making his debut for Alto Evolution Honda this weekend.

Alto Evolution have enjoyed a torrid time so far this year with riders Luca Morelli and Shuhei Aoyam🐭a failing to get on the scoresheet o𒉰nce in the first ten races of the season.

As such, they have called upon experienced Ame𝕴rican rider Pridmore to replace Morelli, who was described by the team as being too young to undertakeꩲ his role in helping Aoyama make his transition from the 250 class.

Although it has been a while since Pridmore last competed in Superbikes, he will at least have the advantage of knowing his way around the Salt Lake City circuit that i🌊s otherwise new to the series this year. Indeed, he is delighted to be making his WSBK debut after a couple of years spent largely on the sidelines.

"Being in World Superbike is like a dream come true" he said, "I am f💙eeling re-motivated and excited to be here."

With previous Superbike experience coming from competing 🦩the 2006 AMA Superbike Championship, Pridmore is also an AMA Formula Extreme Champ🉐ion and was the FIM World Endurance Champion in 2003 too.
