Dominique Aegerter’s second WorldSBK season was a troubled campaign through illness and injury, with results ultimately not matching those h🅘e was able to achieve in 2023.

D﷽espite an in-season homologation update from Yamaha, Aegerter was unable to add to the podiums he collected in Jerez 2023, as the Swiss rider instead spent much of t🧸he season on the sidelines after getting injured while riding motocross in the summer.

“For me, 2024 was a difficult season,” he said. “We were starting with a virus infection, so I missed all the tests; middle of the seas💟on we were a little bit unlucky with some techn🌺ical failures.

“In ൩August, I injured myself in a motorbike accident, I injured my shoulder and ribs; I still need to recover my shoulder a little bit, bu🌄t I could race the last two races.

🤡“I didn’t achieve my goals that I was hoping for, but I’m looking forward to next year and being fully ready for next season.”

On 2025, Aegerter added: “I will give my best for sure. I try to race in the top-six, this would be a great target, try to fight ♒for podiums.

“But we will see also how we will make the winter tests, and I hope we can make a step with Yamaha as well ⛎because the other manufacturers are getting faster and faster.

“So, we try hard, I’m trusting in the team and Yamaha to work ‘full gas’ in the winter. I try to fully recover, and make me physically and mentally fully fit 💫for January where I have my first 𒀰test in Jerez.”
