Kawasaki's Guim Roda hails "determination" of departing rider Loris Baz

Kawasaki team manager Guim Roda hails Loris Baz's "determination" ahead of his official switch to MotoGP.

Kawasaki team manager Guim Roda has hailed Loris Baz's "determination" after the team officially released the rider ahead of his move to MotoGP.

The World Superbike star confirmed his move to Forward Yamaha last month.

"His motivation to look for other racing endeavours and the fact we need a fully concentrate with a rider for a two year project, maybe three, currently make the paths of Loris Baz and KRT head in different directions," said Roda.

"All our best wishes will go with Loris, and on a personal level I am impressed by his determination and motivation to create new goals."

Jonathan Rea is expected to be announced as Baz's replacement after the season ends in Qatar.
