Rolfo and Gamarino to race WSS with Go Eleven
Christian Gamarino and Roberto Rolfo will be contesting the 2014 Supersport World Championship with Team Go Eleven Kawasaki. Gamarino, 19 year old from Genova, Italy, has raised to the status of title contender last year in STK600, ending up third in the Championship standings - with 1 win and 5 podium finishes - and battling out for the ultimate prize up to the final round at Jerez.


33 year old Rolfo has a wealth of experience in both Grand Prix and WSBK, having raced full-time at international level since 1998. In 2003 he was runner-up in the 250cc World Championship, while last year he made his debut in World Supersport, finishing twice on the podium and sixth in the points at the end of the season.


Christian Gamarino: "I'm really happy of this opportunity, it's a dream come true. I can't wait to start, there's a whole set of new challenges but I think we can do well. I would like to thank Gianni, Piero and Denis for putting their trust in me once again."


Roberto Rolfo: "I'm really, really happy to have come to an agreement to stay in World Supersport. I like this Championship and I had a lot of fun last year, plus I can't wait to jump on the Kawasaki, I'm sure it's a very competitive bike. I'm also glad to have Christian Gamarino as team-mate, I watched him racing in STK600 in 2012 and he did very well. I'm going to keep training during the winter so I will ready come the new season. I'd like to thank Denis Sacchetti, Gianni Ramello and Piero Cabutto, who believed in me and pushed hard to have me."


Denis Sacchetti, Team Manager: "The arrival of Roberto Rolfo in our team completes a 'dream team', made of one experienced rider who can aim at the top and one rookie with talent and motivation. We know there's a lot of work to do, especially in the first half of the season, so we need to be ready. We will do our best, but I'm sure that both Roberto and Christian will deliver some good results."
