The three time world champions changes team but stays with Kawasaki.

Three time FIM Supersport World Champion Kenan Sofuoglu will compete on a Ninja ZX-6R inside the San Carlo Puccetti Racing set-up at the next round of the championship, after an amicable parting with his previous Mahi Racing Team India squad.

Sofuoglu, a superstar in his native Turkey and WSS champion for Kawasaki in 2012, was victorious at the Motorland Aragon round in April and has claimed two further podiums since then. He is currently fourth in the championship after his most recent top three finish at Portimao in July.

Kenan and the San Carlo Puccetti Racing squad will now aim for a podium performance on the Ninja ZX-6R at the next round, at Jerez in Spain on September 7th.

Both Kenan and Kawasaki wish the Mahi Racing Team India team well with their racing project and hope that the experience they have gained so far helps with their ongoing ambitions to perform on the world stage.
