Alex Lowes has expressed only one frustration from his inaugural season with Bimota in the 2025 WorldSBK season.
Alex Lowes expressed one frustration from his inaugural season with Bimota in the 2025 WorldSBK season involving a performance dip at the second round in Portugal.
Born in Lincolnshire, Lowes played a key role in Kawasaki’s project until their downsizing to a single rider with a different team, leading to a collaboration with Bimota on chassis integration.
Despite inevitable ups and downs accompanying such a significant overhaul, Lowes finished sixth in the WorldSBK championship, claiming all of Bimota’s four podiums along the way.
The round at Portimao proved challenging for Lowes due to a qualifying setback but he rebounded by securing a top-six finish the following race weekend in Assen.
His standout performance of the season came at Misano, where he clinched second place, marking a notable milestone for Bimota and fostering a positive trend for the remaining races of the season.
