Van der Mark and Lowes Raring to go as WorldSBK Returns to Action in Portugal

The Pata Yamaha Official WorldSBK Team heads to Portugal keen to continue where they left off ahead of the long summer break, as racing finally resumes this weekend with Round 10 of the 2018 MOTUL FIM World Superbike Championship at the Autodromo Internacional do Algarve in Portimo. Michael van der Mark heads into the weekend determined to repeat the success of Misano, where he signed off the first half of the season with a superb second place. Alex Lowes also has the podium firmly in his sights this weekend in Portimo, where he is confident of rediscovering the form that saw him secure his first WorldSBK race win in Brno earlier in the season.
