Sunnyvale, Calif., September 9, 2022 – Josh Herrin (Warhorse HSBK Racing Ducati NYC) completed a marathon of 26 laps at New Jersey Motorsports Park across the two Friday sessions in the MotoAmerica Supersport class as he attempts to wrap up a historic title win for himself and Ducati.
Against the hordes of Yamaha and Suzuki machinery, Herrin finished an unhappy ninth in FP1, 1.9 seconds off pacesetter Josh Hayes, but improved to second in Q1, a mere 0.217 seconds from the top spot, again occupied by Hayes.
Herrin must finish ahead of Rocco Landers (third in Q1) in race one to wrap up the championship or have 50 points in hand over Landers heading into the final round at Barber Motorsports Park in Alabama to be crowned champion.
Qualifying 1 Results – Top 5
P1 – Josh Hayes (Yamaha) 1:23.001
P2 – Josh Herrin (Ducati) 1:23.218
P3 – Rocco Landers (Yamaha) 1:23.325
P4 – Tyler Scott (Suzuki) 1:23.423
P5 – Benjamin Smith (Yamaha) 1:23.545
Josh Herrin (Warhorse HSBK Racing Ducati NYC): “FP1 was really tough this morning,” Herrin said. “We were ninth and I was putting down laps as hard as I could but there was still too big of a gap to the front. The team put in a lot of work for Qualifying 1 and got me feeling a lot more comfortable and with a fresh tire and mindset, we were able to put it in second. I’m excited going into tomorrow and I really want to wrap this championship up. We have to finish ahead of Rocco (Landers), so the motivation is really high to get the job done ahead of race two on Sunday.”
Herrin will be out on track tomorrow, Saturday, September 10 with Qualifying 2 scheduled for 9:05 am EDT. Race one will be held on Saturday, September 10 at 2:10 pm EDT and race two will go green on Sunday, September 11 at 1:20 pm EDT.

Friday highlights – WorldSBK
* In both Free Practice sessions, rain fell during the session with the track eventually drying up towards the end of practice.
P1 – Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK)
Rea posted a best time of 1’49.379s to top FP2 times by over a second.
He was the only rider to ride into the 1’49s bracket in FP2 on his way to top spot.
“It was solid. I got caught out this morning after one lap. The rain came and I brought the bike in, so I didn’t register a lap time during the dry period. All my day’s testing was in the wet. I felt quite OK with the bike, more so in the afternoon. I felt better, this morning I was really struggling with the edge grip. We addressed that in the afternoon, and I felt much better. Also, an area we really struggled with in 2020 was when the track dried out. I really struggled to get off the first gear corners. Too much spinning and not enough forward momentum. I think we addressed that today. The end was not a dry track, but we were still making improvements in lap times.”
P2 – Axel Bassani (Motocorsa Racing)
Bassani was second in FP2 with a best time of 1’50.407.
He was the only rider (apart from Rea) to lap in the 1’50s.
“I’m happy about today. It’s only Friday we are in the top three in wet conditions, but also I think in dry conditions, we have the possibility to do a good job. We will see tomorrow. The weather here at Magny-Cours is not easy to understand. For me, it’s the same. I’m ready for everything.”
P3 – Alex Lowes (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK)
Having been fastest during the opening session courtesy of his fast time at the start of the day, Lowes finished third in FP2 but remains fastest in the combined timing.
Lowes finished 1.639s behind teammate Rea in FP2.
“The day has been a little bit strange with the weather. We haven’t managed too many laps this morning. We went on slick tyres, did three laps and it was starting to slip a little bit and the rain came down quite heavy. So, we put the wet settings in the bike and we finished the session with maybe seven laps. My feeling was really good straight away. This is always positive in the rain conditions. This afternoon, I was hoping it will be dry as it looks like the weather is going to improve as the weekend goes on. This afternoon, I tried a small change on the electronics to help the bike in the corner. I felt really strong on the bike. I only did a couple of laps. We didn’t want to use any more tyres; we used the tyres from this morning, but the bike feels good.”
P4 – Alvaro Bautista (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati)
The Championship leader was fourth in the afternoon session.
In FP2, he crashed at Turn 15 in the tricky conditions.
“It has not been an easy day. In the morning we started on dry tyres but it was already raining. After two laps, it started to rain harder, so we had to switch to a rain set up. In the morning, I felt not so bad. This track is a very particular track in wet conditions; you have to work a lot on the electronics. So, for the afternoon, we were prepared for both wet or dry conditions. At the end, it started to rain. I improved my feeling with the electronics compared to the morning. I miss rear traction on the exit of the corner. We tried to improve the setup of the bike and we found something. The feeling was also good in the wet and we were quite fast. Without the crash, we would be even faster. But the most important is the feeling with the bike.”
P5 – Michael Ruben Rinaldi (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati)
Rinaldi finished in fifth place in the wet afternoon session.
“Friday was tricky. We only made two laps in dry conditions this morning and then we had difficult conditions. But anyway, it was a positive start of the weekend. Also, in the wet, I wasn’t comfortable at the beginning. But we worked during the session, and I improved and finished better than I expected.
Gerloff completes FP2’s top six 2.376s behind Rea.
In FP2, he crashed with a highside on the exit of Turn 12, resulting in a red flag for debris.
“After the crash, my team fixed the bike, and I was able to go up to the top six which we were all happy about. I got one lap this morning in the dry and it wasn’t even a time lap. I feel pretty good in the wet and I feel good in the dry, at least on the one lap I did. I think we’re ready for everything tomorrow.”
To note:
Toprak Razgatlioglu (Pata Yamaha with Brixx WorldSBK) was 10th in FP2. He was 3.159s slower than Rea. Reacting to today’s session he said: “This morning, I felt much better in the wet conditions but in the afternoon, we tried a new setup but without improving the feeling. We saw a problem in the data. Saturday morning looks like it will rain but we will see; anyway, it’s good to train in the wet because everyday, I’m learning and improving my riding in these conditions. I prefer mixed races or dry races, but tomorrow we’ll see.”
French rider Lucas Mahias (Kawasaki Puccetti Racing) finished in 12th place in the wet FP2 session whilst Loris Baz (Bonovo Action BMW) was 14th. Christophe Ponsson (Gil Motor Sport-Yamaha) was 20th.
WorldSBK action resumes on Saturday from 09:00 (Local Time), followed by Tissot Superpole at 11:10 and Race 1 at 14:00.
Seven-Year Hitch: Westby Racing Signs Superbike Rider Mathew Scholtz To A New Contract For 2023 Millville, NJ – Westby Racing is proud to announce that they have once again signed their incumbent Superbike rider Mathew Scholtz to a new contract for 2023.
For the seventh consecutive year, Mathew will race for the team aboard the #11 Westby Racing Yamaha YZF-R1 in the MotoAmerica AMA/FIM North American Road Racing Championship.
Winner of 15 MotoAmerica races during his tenure with Westby Racing, Mathew has tallied five victories for Westby in MotoAmerica’s premier Superbike class, including a win in race one at Road America this past June.
“I’m really happy to sign for the 2023 season, and to continue being part of the Westby family again,” Mathew said. “I just want to give a huge thank you to Tryg Westby for believing in me again and entrusting me to the Westby team and brand. Since 2017, when I first signed with them, we’ve grown together as a team and a family and gotten better every single season. I feel like I’m in the right place at the right time. We are really reaching the peak of performance in myself, the bike, and the team, and I really feel that there are even better things to come for all of us. I’m excited for these last two rounds of the season. At Pittsburgh, we made some big steps forward. Just a massive thank you to everyone on the Westby team, from Chuck (Giacchetto) managing it, to Ed (Sullivan) as my crew chief, to Olly (Hutchinson) and Robert (Jensen) working on the bike, to our electronics guy Vitto (Bolognesi) who joined us this year. It’s really a family team, and I couldn’t be happier to be racing with them.”
“Mathew has been with us since 2017,” commented Westby Racing team owner Tryg Westby. “He’s always given us maximum effort on the track, he’s constantly improving right along with everyone else on our team, and I’m thrilled to be able to have him signed as our rider going forward. We fully expect that 2023 will be our best year yet, and we’re looking to finish off the 2022 season strong at New Jersey Motorsports Park this weekend and at Barber Motorsports Park in two weeks.”
Also commenting on Mathew’s new contract, Westby Racing team manager Chuck Giacchetto said, “I just want to say thank you to our owner Tryg Westby for giving us all yet another year of racing with a rider we know and trust. To think this will be Mathew’s seventh year with the team is just incredible. I’m sure the last two events of the season will be great ones, and then, we move right into off-season testing, and that should set us up for a great run in 2023. Again, a very special thanks to our owner and dear friend Tryg Westby.”

Compliance status
We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience,
regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level.
These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible
to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific
disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML,
adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Screen-reader and keyboard navigation
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with
screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive
a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements,
alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website.
In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels;
descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups),
and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag
for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology.
To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on
as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
Disability profiles supported in our website
Epilepsy Safe Mode: this profile enables people with epilepsy to use the website safely by eliminating the risk of seizures that result from flashing or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
Visually Impaired Mode: this mode adjusts the website for the convenience of users with visual impairments such as Degrading Eyesight, Tunnel Vision, Cataract, Glaucoma, and others.
Cognitive Disability Mode: this mode provides different assistive options to help users with cognitive impairments such as Dyslexia, Autism, CVA, and others, to focus on the essential elements of the website more easily.
ADHD Friendly Mode: this mode helps users with ADHD and Neurodevelopmental disorders to read, browse, and focus on the main website elements more easily while significantly reducing distractions.
Blindness Mode: this mode configures the website to be compatible with screen-readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. A screen-reader is software for blind users that is installed on a computer and smartphone, and websites must be compatible with it.
Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): this profile enables motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab, Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can swap color schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds, with over seven different coloring options.
Animations – person with epilepsy can stop all running animations with the click of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs, and CSS flashing transitions.
Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize important elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered elements only.
Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the entire website instantly.
Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine that is linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to decipher meanings of phrases, initials, slang, and others.
Additional functions – we provide users the option to change cursor color and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other functions.
Browser and assistive technology compatibility
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible.
