Australia’s opening round of the eni FIM Superbike World Championship, next February 20-22 at Phillip Island, will welcome Swann Insurance to the track, as the leading Australian insurer has backed the event as Event Main Sponsor.

Having insured Australian motorcyclists for over 40 years, Swann Insurance has taken their slogan “Protect What You Love” to a new level, supporting the event that showcases the world’s leading production-based bikes and their grid of talented riders.  

Swann Insurance has a rich history of involvement in Australian motorcycle racing, supporting MotoGP, Australian Superbikes and even off-road motorcycling action with the MX-Nationals.

“We are excited about our sponsorship and our involvement further connects Swann Insurance with the Australian motorcycle community,” said Rosbrook as he surveyed the Phillip Island circuit.

“World supers is an event that motorcycle riders really love. They love, and Swann loves, that the bikes on the track are so similar to the bikes motorcyclists own, and we insure, on the road.   

“And we believe motorcycle fans love the competitive grids and the intense racing of world superbikes. There is no better place in the world to showcase the category than on Australia’s scintillating Phillip Island and Swann is ready for the ride!”

Marc Saurina, Dorna WSBK Commercial and Marketing Director: “We are glad to welcome Swann Insurance, one of Australia's largest general insurance groups, to the eni FIM Superbike World Championship, as the Event Main Sponsor. Their presence in our competition shows how important it is for national brands to be visible worldwide, while being close to their customers on site.”
