Lowes completed day﷽-one of the Jerez Wor🐓ldSBK test alongside Bassani, working on electronics, rpm and suspension parts. 

The ꦇBritish rider was hit by several injuries last season, which as a result, led to him finishing way do🦹wn the order in the championship standings.

• Iker Lecuona to be partnered by ex-Moto🅺GP cr🦄ew chief Tom Jojic in 2024 
• Andrea Locatelli works together with Remy Gardne𒆙♑r’s crew chief at Jerez

But now the team leader after Jonathan Rea’s departure, Lowes has been feeling good in his new positionও, which includes workin♎g with Rea’s former crew chief Pere Riba. 

“We were working on some electronics, the RPM that we can use in 2024 and some suspension modifications from Showa,” Lowes told WorldSBK.com.&🌟nbsp;

“We also had a🌳 chassis balance change 🦹from what I was using, something similar to what Jonny was using with some ideas from Pere. 

“It’s really good working with him; obvᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚꦿiously, he has a lot of experience working with Jonathan but also from when he was a rider himself, so I feel like he understands me quite well already and I’m really enjoying working with the new guys in the team.”

Talking about his team-mate Bassani, Lowes was quick to praise the Italian who is heading into his first s𝕴eason as an official factory rider.

Previously with Motocorsa Ducati, Bassani has big shoes to fill with six-time champion Rea having d𓂃eparted for Yamaha, 🎶but Lowes says he’s adapting well.

Lowes added: “Axel is doing a good job but obviously, he has a lot more work to do than when he was testing wi🍰th the Independent team but it’s great to have him wit🧸h us. 

“For day two, long runs and putting everything together before we go into the winter with everything we found at the last test but also on day one this week, to see what else we need to really work on before the Januar🍬y tests and next season.”
