Ryan Vickers, the talented rider from Thetford, is set to make his World Superbike debut this weekend at the iconic Phillip Island circuit in Australia. This marks a pivotal moment in Vickers' career as he transitions from the British Superbike Championship to the global stage.

A New Chapter with Motocorsa Racing Joining Motocorsa Racing in October 2024, Vickers has been preparing rigorously for this debut. "I've been fortunate to test on the track, and it suits my aggressive riding style," Vickers shared. The Phillip Island circuit, known for its high-speed layout, offers a thrilling challenge for the 26-year-old.

From Thetford to Italy: A Life-Changing Move The shift to World Superbikes has also meant a significant lifestyle change for Vickers. Relocating from his family home in Norfolk to an apartment in Italy, Vickers is now closer to his team's base. "The move happened quickly," he recalled. "I'm adapting well, even picking up Italian to communicate better with my team."

Setting Realistic Goals While the dream of becoming a champion drives every rider, Vickers is grounded in his approach. "There are no immediate expectations," he explained. "The focus is on learning and adapting. We’ll assess where we stand and set targets accordingly."

This weekend’s race at Phillip Island is not just a debut but a test of Vickers' resolve and skill on one of the most challenging circuits in the world. Fans and enthusiasts will be watching closely as Vickers takes this significant step in his professional racing career.
