IKER LECUONA

Another Moto2 rider turned official WorldSBK team regular , Lecuona has had a few bright moments in his three years inside the paddock . A factory ride for Honda is always a coveted position in any championship , but it has not been an easy path for Honda and Iker to follow . Two podium finishes ( one last year , admittedly ) and a Tissot Superpole ‘ win ’ at Catalunya in 2022 are his personal high water marks , but injury and an inconsistent package have not helped the clearly fast and talented rider maximise his potential . Always worth watching on track because of his all-action riding style .

DANILO PETRUCCI

Such are the wide-ranging capabilities of Petrucci , he is like a gilded two-wheeled chameleon . He has ridden in a vast array of championships but after starting his international career in Superstock 600 and Superstock 1000 , he moved to the MotoGP™ class . He eventually won two races for Ducati . After MotoGP™ he competed in and won races in MotoAmerica , took a stage win in the famous Dakar Rally Raid and last year was victorious in all three WorldSBK races at the new Cremona Circuit . He still defies categorisation , even as he takes part in his third WorldSBK campaign .
