Following a promising Portoguese round, the GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team is eager to return to action for the tenth round of the 2022 FIM Superbike World Championship at Circuit San Juan Villicum, Argentina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last time out in Portimao, Garrett Gerloff showed good speed and race craft, and although the results didn\u2019t tell the full story, the American\u2019s ride from 17th to ninth in Sunday\u2019s feature-length contest showed he was more than capable of fighting further up the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other side of the box, Kohta Nozane is looking to bounce back from a difficult outing in the Algarve at one of his favourite circuits, having enjoyed a solid round in his rookie campaign at San Juan last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Race 1 will get underway at 15:00 local time on Saturday (GMT -3) after the Friday practice sessions and Superpole qualifier, with Race 2 starting exactly 24 hours later on Sunday, following the SPRC at 12:00.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Garrett Gerloff
<\/strong>\u201cIn Portimao, we enjoyed a decent weekend overall, but our potential was higher in my opinion. The pace was good, but unfortunately we couldn\u2019t get the results I believe we deserved. That\u2019s why I\u2019m even more eager to convert our pace into a strong finish; we know we\u2019re capable of a good weekend here in Argentina.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kohta Nozane
<\/strong>\u201cI cannot wait to be in Argentina. We made progress in the last rounds but unfortunately they didn\u2019t translate into good results. We have potential and I want a strong weekend for myself and the team. Villicum is one of the tracks I enjoy the most and we\u2019ll go full throttle from the very first session.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
