A major career milestone has been officially unlocked by reigning World Supersport champion Albert Arenas, who is set to make his much-anticipated debut in the FIM Superbike World Championship. The Spanish rider has inked a deal to join the Go Eleven squad, where he will pilot a potent Ducati Panigale V4 R. This exciting development also marks a historic turning point for the Italian-based outfit, as they will field a two-rider lineup in the WorldSBK class for the very first time in their history.
Arenas' promotion to the premier production-based motorcycle class comes on the heels of a stellar racing resume. After conquering the Moto3 world championship crown in 2020, the Spanish star repeated the feat by claiming the World Supersport world title during his dominant rookie campaign. Securing four race victories and an impressive 17 podium finishes last season proved just how quickly he could master the intricacies of Supersport machinery.
For Albert Arenas, stepping up to WorldSBK fulfills a lifelong objective set since his initial transition into the production racing paddock. He firmly believes that this career progression arrives at the absolute peak moment. His prior experience within the WorldSBK paddock has familiarized him with the demanding two-race weekend format and the championship's core circuits.
"I am extremely happy with this new challenge. When I came to the World Supersport class, my main goal was to become world champion and then make the step up to Superbike. This move comes at the perfect moment in my career. I have gained experience in the WorldSBK paddock, grown accustomed to two races per weekend, and I know the circuits. Of course, as a rookie I still have a lot to learn about the bike, but I can't wait to test the Ducati and discover where I stand and what results are possible," stated Albert Arenas.
The expansion to a two-bike garage is viewed by Go Eleven team owner Gianni Ramello as a monumental milestone following two decades of racing operations. Management closely monitored Arenas' tenacity and race craft throughout the Supersport season, making him the absolute dream candidate to spearhead their expanded ambitions alongside returning rider Lorenzo Baldassarri.
With a formidable rider lineup featuring two exceptionally fast and motivated competitors, Go Eleven is fully prepared to make significant waves and fight for top-tier results when the lights go out for the upcoming WorldSBK season.
