Former British 125GP runner Kasey Wyatt will contest the Ducati 848 Challenge after teaming up with British Superbike squad GBmoto Racing for 2012.

Londoner Wyatt has a long association with GBmoto, as they have supported him through the Aprilia Superteens series and British GP125s in previous years and see this as a chance for Wyatt to move to the next level in his career and perform on larger capacity machinery.

"I'm very happy with the bike, and the series we have chosen to enter. I feel this opportunity that GBmoto have given me is a really good chance to show people what I can do. It's also given me the opportunity to learn from top class riders and technicians, to get the best out of my bike and racing. I'd like thank all my sponsors that have made this dream come true. I am really looking forward to next year and can not wait for testing," said the youngster.
