According to Italian website Motosprint, Italian rider Lorenzo Lanzi will be returning to Superbike team DFX Corse to subsitute Regis Laconi once again.
Lanzi subbed for Laconi for five rounds before being axed for Fonzie Nieto.
Both Anthony West e 125 cc rider Andrea Iannone were linked to the team, however DFX’s team manager Daniele Carli picked Lanzi again, because according to the latest news Regis Laconi is still not physically fit to compete.
Laconi, suffered a horrific accident during free practice at the Kyalami circuit in South Africa and successfully recovered from two fractured vertebrae that kept him in a hospital for over a month and then continued physical therapy in France.
The French rider got back on his Ducati just five months after his crash and did three honour laps at his home race at Magny-Cours and later got some track time with his team at the Portimao tests last October.
Lanzi will be back on track for the official Infront tests that take place at Phillip Island the week before the opening round of the season.
