Vermeulen lines up for Assen comeback

[Kat00]

http://www.worldsbk.com/images/stories/news/vermeulen_7906.jpgFollowing a crash at the opening round at Phillip Island in late February, Australian Chris Vermeulen hopes to have recovered sufficiently from his knee injuries to return at the Dutch circuit for the Kawasaki Superbike Racing Team where he'll join up with Tom Sykes again on the factory Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10Rs.


Vermeulen declared: ‘My knee is improving every day since I had keyhole surgery over a week ago and I have a good feeling in most of its range. The difficult part now is getting enough bend but also strength and stability in my knee to race at Assen because I don't want to turn up to just ride around. I am getting physiotherapy every day and it's still a week until I need to be on the bike so I am optimistic that in that time it will have improved even more by then. I really enjoy racing at Assen and have had successful results there in both Superbikes and in MotoGP, I also get a lot of support there because of my Dutch heritage. I therefore hope that I can put on a good show and be fit enough to compete and join the team once again.'
