Phillip Island Return for DesmoSport Ducati

The Australian Superbike Championship (ASBK) returns to the Phillip Island Grand Prix circuit for a unique two-day format round of the 2024 championship. Broc Pearson will once again lead the charge aboard the  DesmoSport Ducati Panigale V4 R while Troy Herfoss continues his King of the Baggers campaign in the United States next weekend. 

Ben Henry: "It's been a busy time since Morgan Park, working on the race bikes heading into Phillip Island, but also a really fun project supporting MotoGP coming up in the next few weeks that we're looking forward to sharing soon. We'll be looking to pick up where we left off at Morgan Park though this weekend. Broc is carrying a lot of confidence into the weekend. He's fit, motivated and we'll be looking to keep our momentum going" 

Broc Pearson: "Morgan Park was a good result, but I think more importantly, it's renewed my confidence that I can race for wins this season and that's what I'll be aiming for this weekend. The two-day format means we have a lot of track time on Saturday with practice and qualifying which I'm really looking forward to. I've had a busy work schedule these last few weeks that's been really positive, and I've been able to keep pushing my fitness, so I head into the weekend feeling confident that we can bring home strong results."
