Team Bolliger Switzerland tweaks EWC line-up ahead of Le Mans lift-off

Team Bolliger Switzerland has brought in Pedro Nuno Romero Barbosa to replace Patrick Hobelsberger as the build-up to the 2023 FIM Endurance World Championship season opener at Le Mans next month gathers pace. Hobelsberger was announced as part of the team’s Kawasaki-powered effort last December, but a decision was taken to call on a replacement, as Team Manager Kevin Bolliger explained.

Ad “Patrick and the team have agreed together on a termination of the driver's contract at the test in Navarra. We thank Patrick for his openness, it's a shame it didn't work as he would have fitted in very well with the team.

On this note, we wish Patrick all the best and a successful season in the IDM.
