German Sandro Cortese has agreed terms with Pedercini Racing for the 2020 WorldSBK championship.

The two-time world champion had been left without a ride for this season after refusing to pay to race.

Lucio Pedercini had originally contracted both Lorenzo Savadori and Jordi Torres but ran into sponsor trouble.

The team announced today that Cortese had signed and would contest the 2020 championship.
