EXCLUSIVE: ‘Attitude’ in the UK ‘more towards Superbikes’, not MotoGP - Lowes Full story 👉 MotoGP
and Lowes’ brother Alex are currently riding in the Superbike championship, the Elf Marc VDS rider believes it starts at the domestic level.Speaking to Crash.net, Lowes said:"I think there’s a couple of reasons. If you look at the national championship in England; I know there’s the Moto2-style class with Supersport but it’s not [the same].
"I myself did that and was lucky to make the move to Grand Prix. Then, if we’ve got loads of young guys riding these bikes and improving like in BSB now; okay they’ve got to learn the tracks but not the bikes more-or-less, then their [bikes] should just be a bit better than their BSB bikes. So the step is easier.
"90% of the guys who make it in Grand Prix racing have at a young age been in Spain or Italy and have been racing Red Bull Rookies, Moto3, Moto2 - these styles of bikes."Despite taking nine wins and another 16 podiums so far in his Moto2 career, Lowes has never recorded a podium at his home race, which is the first round following the summer break .
