Boosted by their win at the 24 Heures Motos, the Japanese team are targeting another world championship title. Their immediate goal: winning the 12 Hours of Estoril with Josh Hook, Freddy Foray and Mike di Meglio riding the new CBR 1000 RR-R.
The track near Portugal’s capital Lisbon will host the 12 Hours of Estoril, the 2019-2020 FIM EWC final, on Saturday 26 September. The Endurance World Championship last visited the circuit in 2000. But some former Moto2 and Moto3 riders now competing in the FIM EWC recall the Estoril circuit, which hosted its last MotoGP race in 2012.
Despite the race being organised behind closed doors, with specific protocols due to the health restrictions, the 43rd edition of the 24 Heures Motos held on 29 and 30 August at Le Mans attracted a slew of Endurance fans throughout the race weekend.
The 24 Heures Motos has thrown the race for the 2019-2020 FIM Endurance World Championship title wide open. Suzuki Endurance Racing Team consolidated their place as leader, but four other factory teams are in the Top 5 with a chance at claiming the world title.
