Honda Legends world endurance rider Steve Plater says he will take a totally different approach to this weekend's Albacete race than from Bol d'Or 24 as it requires a more aggressive way of thinking.
Plater, who is coming off the back of two British Supersport podiums at Croft, says he will be pushing hard from the off. He is joined by John McGuinness this weekend with Keith Amor as reserve rider.
"We have a completely different approach this time around. Not only is it an eight hour as opposed to a 24-hour race but it is also a completely different circuit," said the 42-year-old.
"It’s a more aggressive, busy track and it’s much more suited to my riding style so I'll be pushing hard. It’s still a difficult task as there are only two riders instead of three this time, but I’m really looking forward to it. It’s my kind of race, I’ve won there before so hopefully we can get a bit nearer to the podium."
