Most Awaits For Kawasaki Puccetti Racing

Can Öncü will be back into action for his Kawasaki Puccetti Racing team at the Czech circuit of Autodrom Most just days after the completion of the previous round at Donington Park in the United Kingdom.

The sixth round will be run at a 4.212km long circuit which has hosted three previous WorldSSP events. The meeting will feature the now regular two WorldSSP race format, between 19-21July.

A sometimes tough 2024 season for 14-times podium rider and proven race winner Öncü means he is still looking for his first top three finish of the season.

The pace of Can and his Ninja ZX-6R has shone through at times this year, especially with his front row qualifying performance during the Barcelona - Catalunya round. He now looks to Most as a real opportunity to get back into contention for the top spots in what is once again a hugely competitive WorldSSP category.

With the points Can scored at Donington Park he remains 15th in the championship standings, with 27 points in all.

Free Practice and Superpole qualifying will take place at Most on Friday 19 July, with Race One on Saturday and Race Two on Sunday.

Can Öncü, stated: “I’m happy that we can get straight back on track and continue working on our Ninja. In the UK, we were only able to find a good setup on Sunday. So, I can’t wait to carry on from where we left off to build a good base that will allow us to be competitive at Most. We’re all really eager to get back to the level we’re used to running at.”

Swiss rider Marcel Brenner (Viamo Racing by MTM Kawasaki) is 29th in the current standings, with three points. Gabriele Giannini (Prodina Kawasaki) has scored a single point so far, and heads to the next challenge of Most looking for more.

After the completion of the Czech WorldSSP weekend the seventh round of the 12 round championship will take place at the Autodromo Internacional do Algarve in Portugal, between 9-11 August.
