“Alex came over from Australia for some team testing with James and Marko in Jerez at the end of January and both Terry Rymer and I were very impressed with his speed around the track, and also his determination and focus,” said team manager Miles Hutchins.

“We are a young and dynamic team and Alex fits the bill perfectly. He gels well with the other riders and the support team, and to add to this, he’s not content to languish in the shadow of his brother Damian’s success.”

The team will test at Brands Hatch on March 18, 2006 to prepare for the championship. There is now a Diablo 666 Supports Club. Contact: 07939 233199.
