Damo just announced that he is going to ride for TKF on the Bol d'Or race nect weekend!

" CUDLIN JOINS TEAM KAWASAKI FOR BOL’DOR

Australia’s Damian Cudlin has dropped a bombshell in the World
Endurance paddock today with the announcement he’ll compete for Team Kawasaki France in
the Bol’Dor 24 hour next week.

Cudlin will ride the No 111 machine alongside Frenchmen Erwan Nigon and
Hugo Marchand, who will directly compete against Cudlin’s regular Yamaha
Austria Racing Team for Bol’Dor honours."

As Scarnato recovered from the injury very fast, and the Frenchman desperately wanted to ride his last Bol d'Or, Cudlin was forced to be the reserve in YART.

Another quote:

"I want to make it clear I intend to do the best for YART in the final round of WEC in Quatar!"


I am curious what happened with the regular TKF drivers, Plater, Giabbani, Mazuecos and Smart? Erwan Nigon, Hugo Marchand and Damian Cudlin replaced the old crew only week before race! Strange!

I just got the answer: there will be two TKF bikes in the race!

But I strongly doubt that Cudlin will return to YART...

Damien Cudlin is replaced during the race by Jehan d'orgaix?...d'orgaix took the historic double kawa victory in 1997 and was reserve pilot for macio racing (kawa111)...reason unknown???
