Alpinestars Superbike Championship
The mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship presented by Motul.
While you can never take too much away from the recent official ASBK pre-season test at Phillip Island, it looks like Wayne Maxwell is set on continuing to continue from where he left off last year.
Maxwell secured his third ASBK title in 2021 and was the class benchmark rider of the field. In recent pre-season testing, finishing just just a few tenths off the lap record at Phillip Island. Maxwell is in the form of his career and looks hungry to achieve in his quest for a hat-trick of Aussie titles and further become the first rider of the modern era to claim four ASBK titles. In a rarity, six former Alpinestars Superbike champions will be on the grid in 2022, making this season one of the most competitive in recent history. Of the major contenders, Troy Herfoss will be major threat to Maxwell with the pair engaged in some titanic duels over the years, while Bryan Staring (the only rider to become an Australian Champion in three different classes, will be looking to add to his own tally after finishing in the top three in testing.
Lachlan Epis was another to perform strongly in the pre-season test and will be looking to consolidate on the anticipation surrounding BMW Alliance’s return to form. Cru Halliday will have other plans however and will be set on keeping Yamaha at the pointy end of the grids.
