Triple Qatar Superbike Champion Alex Cudlin will contest the 2014 Endurance World Cup for the QMMF Kawasaki Racing team.

Cudlin, who was part of the 2013 Endurance World Championship-winning Suzuki Endurance Racing Team (SERT), will rejoin the team in EWC for the first time since 2010.

“To be singed for QMMF is a real bonus for me,” Cudlin said. “International racing contracts are getting harder and harder to come by, so to have the belief that QMMF have shown in my abilities gives me all the motivation I need to really hit the ground running for round one, the Bol Dor 24 hour.

“I have ridden for QMMF for five years now and most of that has been in the Qatar Superbike Championship. To now head their new team in world endurance will be fantastic. I know the mechanics and team personnel really closely and most of all I trust them to build a competitive and reliable machine, which is imperative for endurance racing.

“The QMMF team have experience at racing endurance. I have raced for them since 2010 and in that year we won the Endurance World Cup. In 2014, we have a new structure and we’re going racing to win, just like we did in 2010.”

Cudlin will also defend his Qatar crown, aiming for a fourth consecutive championship.
