The fourth weekend in September sees Team SUZUKI ECSTAR riders on track for the 14th round of the MotoGP™ World Championship at MotorLand Aragon in Spain, where in the opening Free Practice sessions, Andrea Iannone and Alex Rins finished 5th and 16th respectively today.

In America, it’s the 10th and final round of the MotoAmerica Superbike Championship at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama, where 2017 Champion Toni Elias will be fighting to hold-on to his second place in the series aboard his Yoshimura Suzuki GSX-R1000. The series was won by Cameron Beaubier at the penultimate round at New Jersey Raceway Park two weeks ago. Elias’ team-mate Roger Hayden, riding his final race before retiring, currently holds seventh in the series after finishing runner-up, and earning his best podium result of the season, last time out at New Jersey.

September 22-23: Round 10. MotoAmerica Superbike Championship. Barber Motorsports Park. Birmingham, Alabama. USA. Elias currently sits in second position, 36 points ahead of third-placed Josh Herrin.
