Roczen displays on his win with Suzuki

He rode Suzuki as a schoolboy, gained his first GP on the model at 15 in his German homeland, and now, in his late 20s, Ken Roczen is again profitable on Suzuki in a narrative bok win that noticed the HEP Suzuki squad get their first ever win at this stage.

Larry Brook informed me in an interview at Tampa that the signing of Roczen got here a yr sooner than the workforce deliberate to have an elite rider on board however when Roczen got here up – they couldn’t say no!

Brooks stated: “The concept was to come back in and construct the infrastructure to rent a prime rider like Ken Roczen or whoever, then he got here out there, rode the bike and loved it they usually made the choice early, a yr earlier. We weren’t actually planning for it however you understand, when you have got the chance to work with a terrific rider like that we needed to take it when it got here out there.”

That call to go for it has paid off with Roczen taking the what he stated is the largest win of his profession, with the German now reflecting on his achievement on social media, saying: “I’m so extremely pleased with @hepmotorsports crew! All of the exhausting work we now have put in paid off final evening. Soooo many lengthy days and nights as a result of we believed that we are able to pull this factor off and that’s why we by no means stopped!
The Vibe within the Stadium was one thing I haven’t witnessed in a very long time if ever for me personally.
I wouldn’t have need it some other means.”

“To all of the riders that came visiting afterwards…. One of many coolest issues ever! I used to be so stoked on that. It was an evening i’ll always remember. Thanks to significantly to everybody concerned. So many individuals and firms which might be a part of this system that make all this occur they usually don’t get thanked sufficient in my eyes. So thanks!!!”
