Sam Lowes has provided a fitness update as he retur�💖�ns to World Superbike Championship action this weekend.

Lowes suffered a fractured collarbone at Most, and 🦄missed the Portimao round as he recovered, but is back for Magny-Cours.

The ELF Marc VDS Racing Team has been on track🍬 at Estoril and Misano to recover his fitness for a f꧋ull WSBK round.

He said at Magny-Cours: “I’m really happy to be bac✤k. It’s never nice to watch the races from home and I feel good. 

"I rode at Misano last week on th♊e traini🧸ng bike and it was pretty good.

"🀅Maybe I’m missing a tiny bit of power because without riding the bike, it’s difficult to do all the right muscles. 

"I’ve got really nice memories of my time in WorldSSP 🔥here at Magny-Cours. It’s a circuit where I managed to clinch the t🔴itle. 

"I’ve alwa🌺ys enjoyed it in the past and I’m looking forward to g🎃etting started. 

"The character of the track is t👍hat you have 𓆉to be pretty precise, I won’t say like the British tracks, but maybe more in that direction. 

"With five rounds to go, I’ve learnt a lot. It’s♏ been a good summer for me to evaluate and improve in some areas.&nbs🧸p;

"I’m still missing that last bit of riding the Superbike properly, I keep falling back into that Moto2 style a little bit so my goal is to ride the bike in a better way, brake better and fight near𓂃 the front.”

Sam Lowes is𒈔 currently 16th in his rookie WSBK season.

Alex Lowes: 'The Kawasaki is strong here'

Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK's Alex Lowes previewed his weeken📖d at Magny-Cours: “I’m feeling quite good. We had a good weekend at Portimao, and th🦩is is a track I enjoy. 

"I l🥃ike the layout; I think it’s a nice track to ride and the Kawasaki is strong here. We need to do a lot of hard work 🌱on Friday. 

"It’s so close♈ in WorldSBK, every weekend you need to be feeling good from the fi😼rst laps. 

"The weather at Magny-Cours is always changing so I need to make sure I’m on top of the weather.&nbs🥀p;

"It’s🐲 going to be a tough weekend with a lot of fast guys, but I’m looking forward to the challenge. 

"I think we have some good tracks. I like Aragon a🧸nd Jerez, Estoril’s a quirky little fun track. I will try to do my be꧑st every weekend. 

"If I can be consistent, try to improv﷽e my speed a little bit, fight for podiums and try to win a race before the end of the year, then who knows? As long as I do my best every weekend, it’s all I can do.”
