MOTUL Summer Night Series hosted by St. George MCC
Sydney Motorsport Park – Gardner GP Circuit
Round Two
We can’t yet talk publicly about the plans Troy Herfoss has to race overseas this season, as the team he has signed for will make an official announcement later this month.
However, we can tell you that this weekend at the second round of the Motul Summer Night Series, hosted by St. George MCC at Sydney Motorsport Park, Herfoss will throw a leg over the DesmoSport Ducati V4 R for the first time during practice.
DesmoSport Ducati Team co-owner Ben Henry, a long-time friend of Herf’s, is putting the current Australian Superbike Champion on the bike in what is a ‘testing role’.
Herfoss has not committed to race the evening program but is open to the idea, depending on how things progress during practice.
Nevertheless, where his overseas commitments allow, the pair have not ruled out that their might be opportunities for Herfoss to contest an ASBK round late in the season. However, no commitments or plans have been made, and nothing on that score will be decided until later in the year.
