Eric Granado will become Brazil's first full-time WorldSBK rider since Alex Barros in 2006 as he joins the MIE Honda squad for 2023:
Granado, 26, will race in WSBK on a full-time basis for the first time in 2023, having spent the last two seasons racing in both the Spanish Superbike series and MotoE World Cup.
Granado's past achievements include four Superbike titles in his native Brazil and the 2017 CEV Moto2 crown. He also finished runner-up in MotoE this year to Dominique Aegerter, who is likewise racing in WSBK next year. "We had the chance to work with Eric when he joined the team for the final round of the 2020 WorldSBK championship season in Estoril. He finished in the top 15 in Race 1 and close to the points zone in Race 2, which was really impressive.
"It will be a real challenge, battling with fast, world-level riders but I will try to learn a lot from them and do my best to achieve solid results each weekend so that I can arrive at the end of the season knowing I have done a good job.
