Former WorldSSP Champion Randy Krummenacher will return to the grid in 2021 with the EAB Racing Team aboard a Yamaha YZF-R6 as he aims to fight for the title once again.

A disrupted 2020 season saw him part ways with the MV Agusta Reparto Corse team after just one round and despite tests for Barni Racing Team and their Ducatis, he didn’t make a return to racing.

However, with a new challenge now ahead of him, the 30-year-old Swiss star will be one to watch once again. The EAB Racing Team’s original rider was supposed to be Bo Bendsneyder but the Dutchman left before the season began to remain in the Moto2 World Championship in 2021.

“I can finally put this difficult period of my career behind me. It’s time to start over and I can’t wait to get back on the bike,” said Krummenacher.

“I’ve really missed riding to be honest and am keen to get back to it; I immediately felt good with Ferry Schoenmakers, head of EAB Racing Team, and know that, even if we’ll have to work hard, we’ll be working in the same direction, joining forces to achieve significant results.

“The year couldn’t have started in a better way and this is thanks particularly to Ferry, who has considered me, all my sponsors and supporters, as well as my family that supports me in making the right decisions. I hope to be able to repay them all with my results on track and am looking forward to a full throttle ‘21.”
