The GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team is delighted to announce that iXS will race alongside Dominique Aegerter in the 2023 FIM Superbike World Championship, becoming a team's official technical partner.
Since 1979, the iXS brand has stood for highly functional protective clothing for two-wheelers. With decades of history, the Swiss company has been awarded numerous times as a test winner for its design concept and its high quality standards.
Having proved their efficiency in various World Championships, including Dominique Aegerter's last successful campaigns in WorldSSP and FIM Enel MotoE World Cup where they secured three titles together, iXS will now put its efforts into the upcoming WorldSBK season, helping the GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK to maximise its performance.
The iXS branding will feature on Dominique Aegerter's bike, as well as his leather, while it will also appear inside the team's pit box.
Peter Hostettler, CEO Hostettler Group: "We're pleased to be part of the GRT and Yamaha family. They proved to be a strong team in the WorldSBK paddock and their values blend perfectly with ours. We're more than thrilled to begin this new journey together, hoping to achieve great results in the 2023 FIM Superbike World Championship with the GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team and Dominique Aegerter."
Filippo Conti, Team Manager, GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team: "We're very happy to announce a new partnership with iXS for the 2023 FIM Superbike World Championship. They're a well known brand across the world for their quality, keeping in mind they helped Dominique Aegerter during his last triumphal campaigns. We're pleased to race together and we cannot wait to begin a new journey; I'd like to thank Peter and the whole iXS family for their faith in us. We can make a great duo and a great cooperation, that's why we're more than ready to get on track as soon as possible!"
