Bahattin Sofuoglu has depart🌠ed the MV Agusta World Supersport team for the remainder of the 2024 season and will be replaced by ex-Moto2 racer Bo Bendsneyder.

Turkish racer Sofuoglu joined the MV team for the 2022 season as part of🍌 the WorldSSP Challenge grid, but made a full-time step with the squad the following year.

Sofuoglu managed a race win a🍬t the Barcelona round of the series and a brace of podiums at Most, but hasn’t been able to breach the rostrum in 2024 🥂in an injury hit campaign.

Curre🍌ntly 13th in the standings, he is 106 points shy🤪 of the leading MV of Marcel Schrotter in fifth.

In his plac♔e comes Dutch rider Bendsneyder, who was recently dropped by the Preicanos Moto2 squad following the San Marino Grand Prix.

The team cited lacking results and a “leak of confidential information” leading to tensions flaring within ꦦthe squad as reason for parting aways with t💎he one-time podium finisher before the end of 2024.

Set for his WorldSSP debut at Estoril ne𒁏xt weekend, Bendsneyder said: “I am very happy to begin this new adventure with MV Agusta Reparto Corse.

“I thank Andrea [Quadranti] for the trust and for giving me the opportunity ﷽to race in the♔se two races.

“I am ready and very motivated, I can't wait to start working with the te🐟am, to give m▨y best already at Estoril and Jerez.”

Team boss Quadranti added: “I welcome Bo ⛦to the MV Agusta RC team🧜.
