Jack Miller Announces Team Mates for The Bend
It was always unlikely that Jack Miller would be the sole rider in the Thriller Motorsport garage, and today the mi-bike Motorcycle Insurance Australian Superbike Championship presented by Motul (ASBK) is excited to announce some additional riders set to descend upon The Bend Motorsport Park in South Australia as part of the 2022 finale from 25-27 November.
The riders:
- Josh Hook: the newly crowned 2022 Endurance World Champion was at The Bend in 2021 and will be back again, this time alongside good friend Jack Miller. “Hooky” will race in the Alpinestars Superbike category.
- Marcel Schrötter: The Twenty-nine-year-old German motorcycle racer is currently with Liqui Moly Intact GP competing in Moto2 where he is a regular top ten finisher. Marcel will also compete in the Alpinestars Superbike class at The Bend finale.
- Harrison Voight: The sixteen-year-old Queenslander recently raced in Moto3 at the San Marino GP event, finishing 23rd. His regular race category is the Red Bull Rookies Cup where he is a top ten contender. Harry will compete in the Michelin Supersport 600 class at The Bend Finale.

For Peter Doyle, CEO of Motorcycling Australia, the growing numbers in the Thriller Motorsport team is a boost to the event and the finale: “Last year Jack came back to- as he put it; have some fun with his mates, and the three riders announced today shows he’s really continuing that commitment to the event and to having fun..!
“It will be great to welcome back Josh (Hook) and Harrison (Voight) to the ASBK paddock and for Marcel (Schrötter) I am sure it will be an interesting debut in both the championship and a first time at the world-class Bend circuit”
“I want to commend Jack for his efforts to bring these quality riders to our event and for fans of Australian motorsport, there’s no better reason to come along or tune in to see what will be an epic finale to season 2022!”
