Oxford Ducati’s Tommy Bridewell will get another bite at the WorldSBK cherry when he again stands in for Eugene Laverty at the Jerez round next weekend.

The Bennetts British Superbike star got his first outing with minutes’ notice at Imola but will go into the Spanish race with some data and better preparation to join the Goeleven Ducati team.

“I’m very happy and excited to get another outing on the WorldSBK stage. In Imola it was very rushed and we did a good job with the time we had but now for Jerez I expect to be more strong,” said Bridewell.

“We have been working very hard to understand this new V4R Ducati and I feel great on the bike so once I re adapt to the Factory electronics we can start to push hard.”
