World GP Bike Legends will get behind Australian rookie Remy Gardner at this weekend’s Jerez round of the Moto3 World Championship, where he will contest his fourth round of 2015 with CIP Moto Mahindra.

The World GP Bike Legends event is a three-day motorcycle festival not only featuring an incredible line-up of former world champions and race winners competing against each other on classic machinery, but also a host of off-track entertainment too.

Nick Wigley, CEO of World GP Bike Legends organiser, Goose Live Events, is delighted to have Remy riding under the WGPBL banner, and said: “We’ve come to know Wayne really well recently and we believe that Remy has it in his blood to do well.

“It’s fantastic to be able to back a budding young talent at world championship level, whilst at the same time looking back and appreciating the path riders like his father carved to bring racing to where it is today.

“We hope that the MotoGP fans making the pilgrimage to Jerez will feel the same way and book another trip to the famous circuit in June and see Wayne racing again.”

Wayne Gardner, rider ambassador for the event, and one of the many legends taking to the track to compete said: “It’s brilliant to be able to share my racing with my boys. It’s Remy’s first full season in Moto3 and he’s learning so much every event.

“Hopefully he’ll be able to give me some tips after the Jerez Moto3 round before I line up on the grid in June! I’m so excited about getting out and racing with my rivals again and to have World GP Bike Legends supporting Remy is fantastic.”
