Jerez will host the final WorldSBK test of 2024 ꧒this week for a number of teams,✃ including the Kawasaki Puccetti squad and Garrett Gerloff.

Puccetti becomes Kawasaki’s official team in 2025, as the previous factory squad switches to Bimota, and in Gerloff it found a rider at the previous test, also at Jerez in Octobe✤r, who was able to adapt to the ZX-10RR quickly after two years on BMW machinery.

“I am really happy to be co🔜ming back to Jerez for another test on the Ninja ZX-10RR,” Gerloff said ahead of this week’s test.

“The last test that I ꧙did I felt very good on the bike immediately. I also felt that the pace wasn’t so bad, even though it was my first time on the bike.

“I am excited to s🌠ee what is possible at this test and I kn🎐ow that I will find some more items and things that will help us find a really good way before the Christmas break. I am looking forward to getting to Jerez and seeing the whole team again.”

Manuel Puccetti, Kawasaki Puccatti team principal, added🌠: “These two days o🐟f testing in Jerez are the natural continuation of those we carried out at the end of October, also at the Andalusian track.

“The ne❀xt tests will be important because they will allow Garrett to adapt even better to our 2025 Ninja ZX-10RR and provide an opportunity for our technicians to start working on its performance po🅘tential.

“We have identified some areas of the bike set-up on which we want to work on and we are eager to get back on track to prepare for next༒ season.”

Puccetti added that the bike Gerloff will ride in Jerez t𝄹his week “will have the 20ꦚ25 livery”.
