Parkes steps in for Lascorz


World Supersport runner-up in 2007, the 28 year-old Parkes is one of the most expert riders around in the category and he comes to the Nurburgring on the back of a test last week at Almeria on the Kawasaki ZX-6R with which he will tackle the final part of the championship.


The rider he replaces, Lascorz, who crashed and was injured at Silverstone, is continuing to recover at the Deseux Institute in Barcelona and will undergo surgery this week to speed up the healing of his left leg.
