Italian Samuel Cavalieri has signed to ride for the OUTDO TPR Pedercini Kawasaki team and will join Loris Cresson.
A front runner in the Italian CIV Superbike series, Cavalieri becomes a full-time WorldSBK rider after making nine appearances in the Schampionship as a substitute rider for Motocorsa and Barni Racing. Two 13th place finishes at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli in 2019 are his best results to date.
“I am incredibly happy and excited to be joining Team Pedercini Racing for my first full season in World Superbike," said Cavalieri.
"It will be my first season with Kawasaki. They have launched a new bike which we will have and so I am curious to try it as soon as possible.
"The first goal is gain experience as there are a lot of circuits that I have never seen, only on the PlayStation. It is important to take things step by step and improve the performance. T
"hanks to the team and to Lucio for giving me this opportunity and to all the sponsors who have made it possible.”
