 In News

Remy Gardner continued his strong recent form in an exciting opening race to Round 4 of the 2025 FIM Superbike World Championship in Cremona, fighting for fourth position throughout to eventually cross the line sixth.

The GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team made good use of the final Free Practice 3 session, with Remy setting the fifth fastest time at 1’28.757. He also approached the Tissot Superpole session with confidence, and posted a strong lap to secure seventh on the grid (1’28.599).

As the opening race of the weekend got underway, Remy made a strong start, gaining positions early. Fighting hard throughout, the Australian rider was as high as fourth position in the first half of the race – a position he fought gallantly to try and maintain. Unfortunately losing a couple of places towards the end, he crossed the line a strong sixth place after an impressive showing of determination.

– Superpole: P7 / Race 1: P6

“Overall, it was a decent Saturday. Of course, we are aiming for more but we have to take the positives. Superpole was extremely close—just a few thousandths could move you forward or back—so starting from seventh was alright. I gave it everything in Race 1, especially trying to pull a gap when I was in fourth. When the bike has grip at the start, we can be competitive so we need to make the most of this as it becomes more difficult when we lose the grip. Sixth is a good result, but we are hungry for more.”
