Plater, who currently lies in tenth place in the championship standings is🎶 looking forward to the super fast track.
"As racers, there's nothing more we like better than a bit of speed and Snetterton has loads of it," he said. "However, it's a track that you would prefer to race in the dry and it can be a whole different ball game when it rains but, whatever the weather, it always guarantees fantastic racing. Although we haven't experienced a fairytꦏale start to the season, I'm sure we will demonstrate a marked improvement this weekend."
Team-mate Gary Mason is also upbeat about the weekend and knows that after fini🌠shing fifth at Brands last time out, he will be running with the front pack at the Norfolk venue.
"At Brands we learned a lot more about the bike and the team have worked tireless🍬ly over the past fortnight," comments the Lichfield based racer. "We know that some good results are waiting for us. The R1's potential is enormous and we are confident that the results are on their way🅰."
Superbike r🍰ookie Tommy Hill returns to the series refreshe🦂d after spraining his ankles and suffering a broken toe at Brands. The 19-year-old racer will be seeking out a pair of top ten finishes at the track where he finished second in last year's R6 Cup race.
"We know how fast the Yamaha is and Snetterton will be a fantastic track to demonstrate this," said the BSB rookie. "It will be the first time I race th𓃲ere on the R1 so it will no doubt be a very busy weekend for me,🌜 sorting the set-up and getting comfortable on the bike at a new track. So far that hasn't been a problem and, if I finish in the top ten, I will be more than happy."
