Team HRC is in France, at the Circuit de Nevers Magny-Cours, the stage for the eighth round of the 2021 Superbike World Championship.
Last year’s French round was a challenging one for the Team HRC riders. The racing took place in October, making for three wet races.
With this year’s event running in August, the team hopes for more clement weather to work consistently throughout the weekend.
The Circuit de Nevers Magny-Cours was constructed in 1960 and is located close to Magny-Cours and Nevers and roughly 250 km from Paris.
In the past, the structure has hosted both Formula 1 and MotoGP races and has been a permanent fixture on the Superbike calendar since 2003.
Four thousand four hundred forty-one metres in length, the track boasts 17 turns and runs clockwise.
