Garrett Gerloff believes he has what it takes to not only win a WorldSBK race, but🐈 possibly a wo🐭rld title if 'pieces come together'. 

Based on his performances as a rookie in 2020, then the first of 𓆏those two scenarios would have been more likely than not, however, 2021 was quite the opposite. 

In what can only be described as 'down year' for t𓃲he Amer🐻ican, 2021 was far from what Gerloff is capable of. 

But with the American claiming to be in much better shape, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:both mentally and physically ahead of the new campaign, then there’s obvious reason to think the twoও-time MotoGP stand-in can at least de🅘liver wins in WorldSBK. 

That’s despite being on the same machinery as current world champion Toprak Razgatlioglu who was beaten just twice by other Yamaha riders in the 3🐬4 races he finished last year. 

Talking to WorldSBK.com, Gerloff said: "Damn right I can win a race! All the pieces ha𓆏ve got to come together. I know I’ve got the pace to do it but having the pace to do it and actually putting it together and doing it,💃 a lot more things go into it.

"I feel fast enough, I know I’m fast enough, I j𝔍ust got to have the right race come together but I want to make ෴it happen."

Towards the latter stages of 20ꦕ20 Gerloff was able to get the better of both Pata Yamaha riders - Razgatlioglu and now BMW rider Michael Van Der Mark, along with six-time champion Jonathan Rea in more than a couple of races, highlighting his impressive talent. 

And although last season didn’t go to plan, performances𝄹 in said 2020 campaign is what led fellow American and 2009 WorldSBK champion as a rookie, Ben Spies, to claim Gerloff has what it takes to be a Superbike champion. 

Gerloff's response… "I don’t think he’s wrong! Like I said, it’s those damn puzzle pieces. They get scattered sometimes and trying to put𒐪 them together quickly is a bit of a challenge. 

"I know I’ve got all the pieces there so just trying to make a pre🥂tty picture at the end. It would be amazing. 

"I definitely want to follow in Ben’s footsteps, Nicky Hayden’s to a certain extent, Collin Edwards, Kev☂in Schwantz, Wayne Rainey… there’s so many guys that have come over here and had a lot of success and I’d like to add my name to that list on some level."
