THE UNDERCARD
TWINS CUP
Round one of the 2022
MotoAmerica Twins Cup will see
2021 title winner Kaleb De Keyrel
return to defend his number-
one plate on the Veloce Racing
Aprilia RS 660. De Keyrel's win
in 2021 came after early-season
dominance was married to late-
season consistency and he'll go
into round one favorite for the
Daytona win.
De Keyrel will have to deal with
old foes (and teammate) Jody
Barry, Hayden Schultz (Cycle
Tech – Speed Weaponry Yamaha
YZF-R7), and Jackson Blackmon
(Wrench Motorcycles Yamaha
YZF-R7). Gus Rodio (Rodio
Racing/Warhorse HSBK Racing
Aprilia RS 660), his teammate
Anthony Mazziotto, Dominic Doyle
(Bartcon Racing Yamaha YZF-R7),
Trevor Standish (Pure Attitude
Racing Yamaha YZF-R7) and the
Robem Engineering Aprilia RS 660
trio of Teagg Hobbs, Benjamin
Gloddy and Tommaso Marcon
will also present plenty of tough
competition.
