Harry’s brother, Matthew, who won the CMRC Superstock title in 2018, will not make a return this year, which paves room for the experienced Linfoot, who rides for TAG Yamaha in England.
Linfoot has been racing since 2002, and competes in the British Superbike championship aboard a Yamaha YZF-R1. He has progressed from 125cc bikes to Superbikes, riding in MotoGP 250cc, and World Supersport 600cc.
Speaking to the media during the week, Linfoot was quoted as being excited with the track as he outlined that, “It feels good. It is always nice to learn a new track. I did 15-20 laps just to get familiar with where the bumps are, where to break. It is quite enjoyable, it’s tight and technical.”
Matt Truelove had held the overall lap record of 33.3s before Calvin Ming and then Mark Maloney set faster times during last year’s radicals’ showdown and word out of Team Mohamed’s camp is that they are looking to re
