WorldSBK: Rabat Signs With Kawasaki Puccetti Racing

Kawasaki Puccetti Racing and Tito Rabat together in WorldSBK in 2024

Tito Rabat will compete aboard the Kawasaki Puccetti Racing Ninja ZX-10RR in WorldSBK during the 2024 season.

The productive collaboration between the Spaniard and the Italian team is set to continue, and for the first time Rabat will be able to complete a full season with Kawasaki Puccetti Racing after having previously lined up for the squad as a replacement rider. Taking part  in nine events in 2021, the 2022 season only saw him compete at Misano for Manuel Puccetti’s team, while in 2023 Tito participated in 21 races.

Born in Barcelona on 25 May 1989, Tito Rabat began to make an impression in 2005, in the CEV 125 class, before moving up to the world championship in the same category. Five years in that class, from 2011 to 2015, there followed by a move to Moto2, where Rabat was crowned world champion in 2014. He made his MotoGP debut in 2016 and competed in the reigning class until 2021 when he decided to switch to World Superbike. 2022 saw him triumph in the Spanish SBK championship.

Rabat has signed a one-year contract with Kawasaki Puccetti Racing and so will be able to enjoy a full season with the squad, starting with winter testing on 24-25 January at Jerez and on 29-30 January at Portimao, before the team moves on to Australia for the 2024 WorldSBK season opener which will take place on 23-25 February.
 

 

Manuel Puccetti

“It is with great pleasure that we announce our agreement with Tito Rabat for the 2024 WorldSBK season. We’re very happy to continue to build on this collaboration with such a talented and professional rider, with whom our entire team immediately got on well. Up until now, Rabat has stood in for other riders, without having the chance to complete testing together and so we’re pleased to be able to run an entire season with him in 2024. Our preparation will involve winter tests in January, at both Jerez and Portimao, where Tito will be able to build confidence with a Ninja that will be even more competitive than the 2023 machine, also thanks to updates resulting from concession parts. Our goal will be to regular top ten finishes.”
 

Tito Rabat

“I’m very happy to have come to an agreement that allows me to stay with Kawasaki Puccetti Racing. I’ve always had a great relationship with Manuel and the entire team. In the past, I’ve been called upon to stand-in once the season’s been underway, so I’m sure that if I can take part in winter testing and all the races, our results will be better than what we’ve achieved to date. I expect an even more competitive bike and so can’t wait to start my 2024 season!”   

Holiday Gift Guide: Mat Oxley’s Latest Book “Racing Hitler”

May Oxley’s latest great book is titled “Racing Hitler” and sub-titled “The Skint, Plucky Brit Who Fought The Nazi Speed Machine and Won.”

It is an amazing true story of eccentric Isle of Man TT racer Eric Crudgington Fernihough, a British biking bulldog who dreamed of being the fastest motorcyclist on Earth on his home-built, supercharged Brough Superior. His great rival was German road racing champion Ernst Henne, honored by Adolf Hitler, who wanted Germany to prove its superiority by setting speed records. Henne’s supercharged BMW streamliner  wore swastikas on its tailfin.

The Brit and the German traded the land-speed record time after time. And then along came dashing Italian Pierro Taruffi, who raced cars for Enzo Ferrari before dedicating himself to chasing the motorcycle record with a supercharged four-cylinder Gilera, which wore Mussolini’s fascist littorio symbol.

While Henne chased the record on Germany’s new autobahns and Taruffi raced down Italy’s autostradas, Fernihough went wherever he could: One man and his motorcycle against the might of fascist Europe. But nothing was going to stop him… Only available from www.matoxley.bigcartel.com for $43 U.S., including delivery to the USA via standard mail, or $39 via economy mail.

MotoAmerica: Westby Racing Shutting Down

Health Issues Lead To Dissolution Of Westby Racing

Tulsa, OK – December 18, 2023 – Citing personal health issues, Tryg Westby, owner of Westby Racing, has made the difficult decision to dissolve the team, effective immediately. The announcement was made today by Westby himself.

“This is one of the toughest decisions I’ve had to make in my entire life,” Westby said. “I’ve been dealing with a lot of health issues over the past few years, and it’s been getting more and more difficult for me to get to the races. So, after a lot of careful thought, I’ve decided to conclude our long run as an AMA and MotoAmerica race team.

“I started this team with my son Dane, and after he passed, we continued to run the team as an answer to ‘WWDD?,’ which is ‘What Would Dane Do?’ Well, the answer to that was to keep racing because we had unfinished business that we started with Dane. But, now, due to my health, it’s time to close this chapter of the Westby legacy.

“I want to personally thank all the riders, crew members, staff members, sponsors, and team partners—especially Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A.—who have worked with us over the years. We had a lot of success and good times together. I wish everyone well in their next endeavors, and I also want to thank MotoAmerica for allowing us to be part of their excellent road racing series.”
