I'd like to see him back in SBK aboard that bike. Even better if there were two on the grid full time next year. He's a lively character and keeps things interesting for sure, and he's a hell of a racer to boot.
No chance. Herrin is in there to bother the non-Italian bikes and perhaps get some seat-time on the V4R in case Petrucci fucks-off to WSBK for 2023. Or not.
Herrin wont even be able to keep up with Cam and Scholtz this weekend. His only shot is to get a good launch and then block them to help Petrucci get a big enough gap to lock in 2nd.
That is my call too... Pet is going back to Europe and this weekend is JH test for 2023 Warhorse Superbike ride.
Has to be able to get close enough to reach the feathers I actually think he will be quicker than his teammate. If he’s smart regardless of “team orders” he’d ride for his future if ya know what I mean.
Love to see this, such great team dynamics they have and happy to see it continue. Can never replace Dane, he was a special dude but Matthew has stepped in to play that ambassador role and it just seems very fitting for his legacy. They both have that passion and heart.
So is he planned to ride it and it’s just being a Ducati and he’s not on track or is this not happening? Something must be off with him or his super sport bike as well to be that far back after 14 laps in.
