Former WorldSBK Champion Troy Corser will make his return to racing at the 2018 Phillip Island Classic in January.
Corser will head the Aussie squad in the blue-chip International Challenge teams’ event as the locals look to break the three-year domination by the Jeremy McWilliams-led United Kingdom. Teams from New Zealand and America will also compete in 2018.
UK-based Corser can’t wait to reacquaint himself with one of his favourite pieces of tarmac, where he was a seven-time winner in WorldSBK between 1995 and 2006.
“It’s time to get back and race at home in front of a Phillip Island home crowd. It's been a long time. I have been doing the Goodwood events with a great team at BMW Classic, riding some old museum bikes. It's been a lot of fun. Everyone tells me the Island Classic is a great event so with it being the 25th anniversary, it feels like a good time to come back and give it a go,” he said.
