Eugene Laverty wants to capitalise on the progress made so far with the Voltcom Crescent Suzuki GSX-R after his gripping comeback performance at Motorland Aragon in Spain; clinching fifth and sixth places after early-lap incidents relegated him to the mid-pack in both races. Laverty has a strong history at the Dutch track, with a front-row start and race-two win on his last visit, plus a podium-spot the year before; and the Irishman is confident he can run at the front astride his Yoshimura-powered Suzuki.

Lowes is looking forward to strengthening his rookie campaign as part of the British-based World Superbike team with his first visit to a circuit he knows well; and continuing his education aboard the Suzuki GSX-R With historical links dating back to the first Dutch Tourist Trophy in , the remodelled and renamed Assen TT Circuit has been a favourite on the World Superbike calendar since Now measuring 4, m, the famously fast and flowing circuit has 17 high-speed and heavily-cambered corners — six left-hand and 11 rights — providing some of the most-exciting racing at world-class level and attracting a strong and passionate crowd year-on-year.

Assen is a fantastic track and very enjoyable to ride.

1. Assen – Assen is a municipality and a city in the northeastern Netherlands, and is the capital of the province of Drenthe. It received city rights in , Assen is known for TT Circuit Assen, the motorcycle racing circuit, where on the last Sunday in June the Dutch TT is run, and also for the annual Assen .

The Bicentennial Park circuit was a semi-permanent circuit which featured purpose-built roads in the park area, along with a temporary segment taking it out on Biscayne Boulevard near the entrance to the Port of Miami. For the event, the circuit was run in the opposite direction clockwise as it had previously been contested counter-clockwise. This was to prevent drivers who had raced there in previous years in IMSA from having an experience advantage. Two of the turns were also widened and slightly re-worked, but that did not significantly alter the layout.

Less than three years after the lone CART race in , the layout of the Bicentennial Park racing circuit was partially razed for construction of American Airlines Arena. In the early s, most of the remaining vestiges of the circuit were completely demolished due to the construction of the new Science Museum and Art Museum on the site. This area was later used for a new circuit, known as the Biscayne Bay Street Circuit.
