Leon Camier on the Aprilia Superbike

Leon Camier who was crowned the 2009 British Superbike Champion at Silverstone on Sunday will be replacing injured Shinya Nakano on the Aprilia RSV4 Factory.
According to Italy’s Motosprint, the Brit already has a contract from Aprilia to ride the last two rounds of the World Superbike Championship at Magny-Cours and Portimao alongside Max Biaggi.

The 22-year-old from Ashford, Kent in his third season of the BSB championship and with three rounds of the championship remaining he has already taken 17 race victories out of the 23 races to take place so far, with his Airwaves Yamaha beating the record of wins in a single season, which was 14.

Aprilia fielded Marco Simoncelli as Nakano’s replacement at the Imola last Sunday.
The Italian rider DNF’d in Race 1, but in Race 2 took 3rd.
Simoncelli will be back to his 250cc championship at Estoril this weekend.
