JULIAN CORREA RE-SIGNS WITH PONS MOTORSPORT ITALIKA RACING FOR THE 2027 SEASON.

JUPITER, FL  – Pons Motorsport Italika Racing is thrilled to announce that Julian Correa has officially re-signed with the team for the upcoming 2027 WorldSPB season.

Following a highly positive overall assessment of his rookie year, Correa will return to the track with the shared goal of battling at the front of the competitive pack.

During his first season in the WorldSBK Championship aboard the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R, Correa demonstrated a remarkable ability to adapt to a higher-displacement and more demanding motorcycle compared to his previous year. The Team Manager noted that the opening months required intensive work to adapt to the new bike’s characteristics and navigate unfamiliar circuits. However, as the championship progressed, Correa showed constant evolution.

“The standout moment came when we began competing at circuits Julian was already familiar with,” the Team Manager stated. “That is when he was able to take a significant step forward, make a real impact, and showcase his full potential as a rookie in the category.”

Correa, who races under the number 40, is equally optimistic about the future. “Extremely excited to continue with Pons Motorsports for the 2027 WorldSPB Championship,” Correa shared. “The team has been flawless all year and we really picked up the momentum towards the end of the year. Using the experience and data we’ve accumulated over this season, I think we have a very strong campaign ahead of us for 2027!”

And to coach Torres for all his help behind the scenes. Work doesn’t stop, 2027 let’s get it!”
