After his ride with Kawasaki during the Brands Hatch BSB round where he scored at 10th place and two 11th places, 23- year old Ian Lowry has been confirmed by Kawasaki to replace the now recovering Chris Vermeulen at round 11 of the World Superbike championship at Nurburgring September 5th.
Ian Lowry: “I am really grateful for this opportunity to ride for the Factory Kawasaki squad.
It was always a dream of mine to compete in the World Superbike Championship and now this is becoming a reality.
I enjoyed my outing at Brands Hatch and working with such a professional team, and was surprised at how comfortable I felt on the Kawasaki.
I know how competitive the World Superbike Championship is and I intend to make the most of this opportunity and repay the team with two strong finishes.
I’m really looking forward to getting a full spin out in the bike again and am really excited about the race.
