EAB Racing Team starts new adventure with Niki Tuuli and Ducati in FIM World Supersport Championship 2024

16/10/2023

EAB Schacht Racing is happy to announce their plans for upcoming FIM World Supersport campaign. The Dutch Team signs Finnish rider Niki Tuuli for the 2024 season on a brand-new Ducati machine. It is a completely new set-up, but the focus is always to secure the best results as possible. The team and rider are motivated for a new challenge.

Niki Tuuli is from Finland, he is born on 26 oktober 1995 and is 27 years old. The Finnish rider is not a strange name in the motorsport. Niki has a lot of experience in the different championships. He started his career in the European Superstock 600 championship before he moved to the World Supersport class. He also rode in the Moto2 and MotoE championship. Niki achieved many podiums during the years on different machinery, championships, and teams. He is known as a good fighter and is a professional on and off track.

The EAB Schacht Racing squad will also switch from machinery. After a couple of years riding of the Yamaha YZF-R6 the team will switch to Ducati. It is not an unknow brand for the team. They rode with Bologna based brand back in the past in the European Stock 1000 championship. But in 2024 the team will start with the Ducati Panigale V2 model in the FIM World Supersport championship. It will be a new challenge, a different bike, other technology and a new rider. All this makes it already an interesting new season. As a team we cannot wait to get the new challenge started and make it work.

Kor Veldman: “I am happy that we signed Niki Tuuli for 2024. We have had contact with each other before in the past and it is nice to start the new season together. We are therefore very confident that we can show great things together in the new season. In 2024 we will no longer ride the trusted Yamaha YZF-R6 but a Ducati V2 Panigale. This will be a new challenge for both of us as a team and for Niki. The first parts have already arrived in the workshop, so from now we can build everything up for. the first test in December. I would like to thank everyone who helped making this possible and we are going in to 2024 with full confidence.”

Niki Tuuli: “First of all I want to say thanks to the EAB Racing Team for give me this opportunity. I also want to thank the people at my side who making this possible. This is a great change for me to show the real potential and I think as a Finnish rider I will fit well in the team. I follow the team for many years and the atmosphere is good. I am motivated and me and the team will work good together. First thing to do is prepare everything ready during the winter to start the year in best way. It certainly takes time to adapt to a new bike, but the complete package is there to fight for the top spots. I am ready to start to work with the team and I am super happy with this move. On to next year and many thanks to everybody involved.”

The EAB Schacht Racing Team and Niki Tuuli will have a few test days planned before the new season will kick off. This will be important as everything will be new for both sides. We work as hard as we can to get the best preparation as possible. On this way we can start the 2024 season on the right way.

EAB Racing Team begint nieuw avontuur met Niki Tuuli en Ducati in FIM World Supersport Championship 2024

EAB Schacht Racing  is blij om hun plannen voor komend FIM World Supersport seizoen aan te kondigen. Het Nederlandse team heeft de Finse rijder Niki Tuuli gecontracteerd voor het 2024 seizoen. Ook zal het team overgaan naar een gloednieuwe Ducati-machine. Het is een compleet nieuwe opzet, maar de focus ligt altijd op het behalen van het best mogelijke resultaat. Het team en rijder zijn gemotiveerd voor een nieuwe uitdaging.

Niki Tuuli komt uit Finland, hij is geboren op 26 oktober 1995 en is 27 jaar oud. De Finse rijder is geen vreemde naam in de motorsport en heeft veel ervaring in de diverse kampioenschappen op gedaan. Hij begon zijn carrière in het Europese Superstock 600-kampioenschap voordat hij overstapte naar de World Supersport-klasse. Ook heeft hij meerdere seizoenen gereden in het Moto2- en MotoE kampioenschap. Niki heeft door de jaren heen vele podiumplaatsen behaald op verschillende machines, kampioenschappen en teams. Hij staat bekend als een goede vechter en is een professional op en naast de baan.

Het EAB Schacht Racing Team zal ook overstappen van merk. Na een paar jaar rijden op de Yamaha YZF-R6 motorfiets stapt het team over naar Ducati. Het is geen onbekend merk voor het team. Zo reden we in het verleden met het in Bologna gevestigde merk in het European Stock 1000-kampioenschap. Maar in 2024 zal het team met het Ducati Panigale V2-model starten in het FIM World Supersport kampioenschap. Het wordt een nieuwe uitdaging, een andere motor, andere technologie en een nieuwe rijder. Dit alles maakt het nu al een interessant nieuw seizoen. Als team kunnen we niet wachten om aan de nieuwe uitdaging te beginnen.

Kor Veldman: Ik ben blij dat we Niki Tuuli voor 2024 hebben kunnen contracteren. In het verleden hebben we al vaker contact met elkaar gehad en het is dan ook fijn om samen het nieuwe seizoen in te gaan. We hebben er dan ook veel vertrouwen in dat we samen mooie dingen kunnen laten zien in het nieuwe seizoen. In 2024 rijden we niet meer met de vertrouwde Yamaha R6 maar met een Ducati V2 Panigale. Dit geeft weer nieuwe uitdagingen voor zowel ons als team als voor Niki. De eerste motoren en onderdelen zijn reeds gearriveerd in de werkplaats zodat we alles kunnen opbouwen om onze eerste test in december te gaan maken. Ik wil graag iedereen bedanken die dit mede mogelijk hebben gemaakt en ga 2024 met het volste vertrouwen in.

Niki Tuuli: “Allereerst wil ik het EAB Racing Team bedanken voor het feit dat ze mij deze kans hebben gegeven. Ik wil ook de mensen aan mijn zijde bedanken die dit mogelijk hebben gemaakt. Dit is een geweldige verandering voor mij om het echte potentieel te laten zien. Ik denk dat ik als Finse coureur goed in het team zal passen. Ik volg het team al jaren en de sfeer is goed. Ik ben gemotiveerd en heb vertrouwen dat het team en ik goed kunnen samenwerken. Het eerste dat we moeten doen is alles klaarmaken gedurende wintertesten, zodat we het jaar goed kunnen beginnen. Het kost zeker tijd om je aan te passen aan een nieuwe motor, maar het complete pakket is aanwezig om voor de topposities te vechten. Ik ben klaar om met het team aan de slag te gaan en ben super blij met deze stap. Op naar volgend jaar en dank aan alle betrokkenen.”

Het EAB Schacht Racing Team en Niki Tuuli hebben nog een aantal testdagen gepland voordat het nieuwe seizoen van start gaat. Dit zullen belangrijke testdagen worden, omdat het voor beide partijen nieuws zal zijn.  Wij werken zo hard mogelijk om de juiste voorbereiding te. Op deze manier kunnen we het seizoen 2024 op de juiste manier starten.

Good speed for the EAB Racing Team during the World Supersport Championship in Portimão

01/10/2023

The EAB Racing Team and Glenn van Straalen rode on the circuit of Autódromo Internacional do Algarve last weekend. The penultimate race weekend for the FIM World Supersport Championship was scheduled during the weekend of September 29 to October 1. During the first race Glenn crashed hard but managed to recover in race two with a nice sixth place.

It was a warm weekend in Portugal with temperatures around thirty degrees. The weekend kicked off on Friday with the two free practice sessions. The EAB Racing Team rider got up to speed well and was able to build a strong rhythm during the sessions. In the end of the second training session, the Yamaha rider had a technical problem and forced him to stop. Just before that, Glenn managed to set a good time with eleventh place overall.

On Saturday morning we saw the Superpole session. It was important for the rider from Hoogkarspel to take a step forward. This is what he did and improved his lap time significantly. In the early stages of qualifying, Glenn set a fifth lap time. Halfway through the session, he has an innocent fall. In the final minutes of Superpole we see a red flag situation. After that everybody has time to set one lap time. Glenn is unable to improve and start the races from eighth place.

Unfortunately, the first race did not go as Glenn had hoped. During the opening phase he managed to position himself well and maintained himself around eighth place. Later in the race Glenn makes a mistake and has to go wide and loses some positions. After that it is difficult to keep up with the pace of the riders in front of him and he is in tenth place for a long time. The young Dutchman loses the front of his machine in the final laps and crashes out of the race.

Despite the heavy crash in the first race, Glenn is ready for battle during race two. He gets off to a good start and gains a position. A group is formed fighting for fourth position and Glenn shows up well and fights hard for his position. Later in the race he rides alone but sets fast times and a good pace. He crosses the line in a nice sixth place. A positive end to the weekend at the Algarve circuit.

Glenn: “Overall I am satisfied with the weekend in Portugal. During the free practice sessions we quickly got up to speed and that gave us confidence during the weekend. In Superpole we managed to qualify in eighth place with a good pace. In the first race it was difficult to keep up the pace during the opening laps. After that the rhythm was better, but unfortunately I crashed out of the race in the final laps. We managed to finish the second race in sixth place. This is a great result after the crash on Saturday. This gives confidence and shows that we belong to the top. We take this feeling with us to the last race in Jerez. Thank you to the EAB Racig Team for this weekend.”

The EAB Racing Team is going recharge and get ready for the last race of the season. This will take place at the end of the month on the weekend of October 27 to 29 at the Circuito de Jerez – Angel Nieto circuit in Spain.

EAB Racing Team shows good progress during World Supersport in Motorland Aragon

25/09/2023

The EAB Racing Team and Glenn van Straalen rode their race for the FIM World Supersport Championship at the Motorland in Aragon during the weekend of September 22 to 24. It was a positive weekend for the EAB Racing Team in Spain despite the last race. Glenn ends the weekend with an eighth place in the first race and suffers an early crash during the second race.

On Friday morning, Glenn started his weekend well under the Spanish sun. He worked on his rhythm and got up to speed. During the second free practice, the Yamaha rider started well and was able to make the desired progression. After he put on different tires for the second stint, there was no time improvement and he ended the free practice sessions in twelfth place overall. The feeling was positive, but small steps had still need to be made.

During the Superpole on Saturday morning, Glenn was able to make the right progress. The young Dutchman had a tow in the first stint, which allowed him to improve his time. With the second stint Glenn rode alone, which made improving his time more difficult. He managed to improve his lap time by a small difference and was able to qualify in ninth place for the races to be held later in the weekend.

The first race on Saturday afternoon was positive for the EAB Racing Team rider. He had a good opening and joined a group fighting for the top positions in the race. Halfway through the race, Glenn has some difficulty with the pace and loses ground on this group. But he shows a strong race, but goes off track on the last lap, resulting in a track limits. This puts him back one place in the final results and finishes the first race in eighth.

During the second race at Motorland Aragon, Glenn unfortunately crashed at the start. He got a highsider coming out of the first corner and was thrown from his machine. This unfortunately meant an early end to his race. Fortunately, Glenn himself is unhurt, but is of course disappointed by the crash.

Glenn: “Overall the speed was good over the weekend. The first race was positive and I was in a good position. Halfway through the race I lost connection with the group. Despite that, I rode a good race and finished in eighth place. Unfortunately, the second race race was over quickly. It’s sad to have to end the weekend like this, after we had a good race on Saturday. We have to take our speed to Portimão and then I expect we can be there again. Thanks to the EAB Racing Team for the weekend.”

The EAB Racing Team will directly travel to Portugal where the penultimate race weekend of the season will take place next weekend. This takes place on the weekend of September 29 to October 1 and the place of action this time is the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve.

Difficult weekend for the EAB Racing Team in the Supersport World Championship in Magny Cours

10/09/2023

The EAB Racing Team and Glenn van Straalen were in action at the Magny-Cours circuit in France during the weekend of September 8 to 10. The second half of the World Supersport season kicked off here after the summer break. Unfortunately, luck was not on the team’s side during the race weekend. We had to retire early in the first race due to technical problems and crosses the finish line in thirteenth the second race.

The Supersport World Championship season resumed on a tropically warm Magny-Cours after a six-week summer break. Both team and rider were keen to start the second part well. However, things did not go exactly as the Dutch duo wanted. During the free practice sessions on Friday, Glenn starts well, he feels strong on the Yamaha YZF-R6 and sets good times. Unfortunately he had a crash later in the session. During the second free practice session, Glenn had another crash, but luckily he was unhurt. This does not make it an ideal opening day, which he ends in fifteenth place.

The Superpole session on Saturday morning went better for the 22-year-old Dutchman. He rides many laps and gains more confidence in the bike. He managed to qualify in fifteenth place. Not quite the starting position he had hoped for. However, the times were close together, which meant that anything was possible in the races.

On Saturday afternoon the lights went green for the first race of the weekend. Glenn got off to a good start and managed to gain some positions in the first few corners. It was then difficult to follow the pace of the riders in front of him and he ended up riding alone. Unfortunately, Glenn faced a technical problem halfway through the race, forcing him to retire early.

During the second race on Sunday it was also difficult for Glenn. In the first laps of the race he came in traffic in the Adelaide hairpin, in which he lost a lot of time and positions. Then it was not easy to make the way forward and it was a long race for the young Dutchman. Unfortunately, there was no more than thirteenth place.

Glenn: “It was a difficult weekend in Magny-Cours. During the free practice on Friday we had bad luck with two crashes. As a result, we missed valuable riding time. I felt good in the Superpole, but there was no more than fifteenth starting place. Unfortunately, in the first race we had to deal with technical problems, which meant we had to end the race early. We knew it would be a difficult second race. We had not been able to build up the right rhythm during the weekend due to the various problems. As a result we were not able to complete enough laps, which ultimately resulted in a difficult weekend. This is certainly not where we want and should be. I am looking forward to Aragon in two weeks. Thanks to the EAB Racing Team for the weekend.”

In two weeks Glenn will be back on the bike. Then we are at the Motorland Aragon in Spain for the tenth race of the World Supersport Championship. This will be held on the weekend of September 22 to 24.

The right speed for the EAB Racing Team but difficult races during World Supersport Most

30/07/2023

Last weekend the EAB Racing Team rode their eighth race for the FIM World Supersport Championship at the Autodrom Most in the Czech Republic. In the weekend of 28 to 30 July, the last race was held here before the summer break. It was a weekend with good progress for Glenn van Straalen but not the results where he had hoped for. Glenn scores an eighth place in the first race and has a crash in the second race.

During the weekend in the Czech Republic we saw changeable weather conditions, with several rain showers and the sun coming by. The Supersport World Championship was not affected by rain and ran their sessions in good weather conditions. During the free practice sessions, Glenn managed to get the right feeling on his Yamaha YZF-R6. He is fourteenth after the free practice sessions.

During the Superpole session on Saturday morning, the young Dutchman managed to improve compared to the free practice sessions. Glenn felt and showed good pace during this qualifying session. He clocked his lap times at his own pace and that gave confidence for the races later in the weekend. With this he was allowed to start from tenth place on the grid.

The first race saw quite a bit of chaos at the start in the first corner, with Glenn also having to steer straight. Due to a crash, the red flag was waved, after which the first race was resumed over twelve laps. Glenn got off to a good start and had a good opening. As the race followed, the Dutchman lost some ground on the front group and crossed the finish line in eight.

The second race was slightly delayed during the start. When everyone was ready for the start, there was a machine with problems, so it was not entirely clear when the starting lights came on. Once the lights were on, Glenn was off too fast resulting in a false start. For this, the Yamaha rider received a double longlappenalty. At that moment it just started to rain on the Autodrom in Most, with Glenn losing the front of his machine entering the long lap. With this he closes the weekend with a zero score.

Glenn: “It was a mixed weekend in Most. We showed that we have the right speed, but this didn’t come out completely in both races. During the free practice sessions, I immediately had a good feeling on the Yamaha YZF-R6. During Superpole my feeling was better and I was able to clock several fast laps for a tenth place on the grid. The first race was good, unfortunately I couldn’t keep up with the front group and had lost some ground. I ended up in another group with eighth place as a result. We can be short about the second race. I had a false start, which resulted in a double long lap penalty. When I entered this longlap I crashed because of the rain. We are going to recharge and get ready for the next race. Thanks to the EAB Racing Team for the weekend.”

We are now entering a six-week summer break. Glenn is currently seventh in the standings. The next race for the FIM World Supersport Championship will take place on the weekend of 8-10 September at the Magny Cours circuit in France.

Difficult weekend for the EAB Racing Team in Imola

16/07/2023

The EAB Racing Team and Glenn van Straalen raced on the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari circuit over the weekend from 14 to 16 July. It was the seventh race weekend for the World Supersport Championship. Luck was not on the side of the young Dutchman. He crosses the finish line in thirteenth place in the first race and crashed out in the second race.

The entire weekend was held under tropical conditions with temperatures between 30 and 40 degrees. It was therefore a tough weekend for the rider and machine. The last time Glenn rode on this Italian circuit was back in 2019 together with the EAB Racing Team. It was therefore important to get to know the circuit on Friday during the first free practice. Glenn clocked many laps on his Yamaha YZF-R6. This was different during the second free practice. Glenn crashed early in the session and missed out on usefull riding time. We saw him back in sixteenth place after Friday.

The Superpole session was complicated for the EAB Racing Team rider. He had to start from the nineteenth place on the starting grid. In the heat of the day, the lights turned green for the first race. Glenn was able to position himself well but was squeezed in the first corner. The Yamaha rider had to go through the gravel trap and joined the field at the back. He then made a nice advance to the front and crossed the finish line in thirteenth.

During the second race Glenn started strong and quickly worked his way up to the front. The Dutchman then rode in a nice group of riders, until he crashed in the early stages of the race due a crash. Fortunately, Glenn was unhurt but unfortunately a zero score in the second race in Imola.

Glenn: “During the free practice sessions on Friday we couldn’t find the right feeling with the bike. The crash in the second training session did not help either. Superpole was already going better but due to unfortunate yellow flag situations we were on a bad place on the grid. The first race was long and tough due to a first corner collision which also affected my clipon. I managed to make my way forward and eventually finished in thirteenth place. In the second race I had a good opening lap and we were well underway. I followed the group but a strange crash meant the end of the race. Not the weekend we had hoped for, we are going to get ready for the race weekend in Most. Thanks to the EAB Racing Team for the hard work.”

The next race weekend will take place in two weeks. Then the Supersport World Championship will take place on the Autodrom Most circuit in the Czech Republic in the weekend from 28 till 30 July

Not the results were the EAB Racing Team was hoping for in Donington Park

02/07/2023

The EAB Racing Team and Glenn van Straalen rode at the Donington Park circuit in England last weekend. It was a weekend with mixed feeling for Dutch team in the FIM World Supersport Championship. The EAB Racing Team took a fifth and tenth place in the races.

In the weekend from June 30 to July 2, the sixth race weekend was scheduled. Friday was heavily clouded together with several rain showers and a strong wind. Not ideal conditions during the free practice sessions. Glenn didn’t have the optimal feeling on the opening day and had to do this during Superpole on Saturday.

The EAB Racing Team rider made a good step forward during Superpole on Saturday morning. The feeling with the Yamaha YZF-R6 was better and this resulted in a seventh place on the grid for the races later in the weekend.

During the first race on Saturday afternoon, Glenn had a good start. He won some places in the openingstages and rode on the fifth place. Glenn led this group for most of the race and showed himself strongly. In the last two laps Glenn was passed and made a small mistake. This cost the 22-year-old Dutchman two places. An overtaking maneuver by a colleague rider in the last corner on the last lap, resulted in two rider who went wide. This allowed Glenn to take back his fifth position and cross the line in fifth.

Glenn: “Overall it was not the best weekend in Donington. Friday started a bit difficult, we didn’t had the right feeling with the machine and the weather conditions were not good. On Saturday we had a good performance in Superpole and managed to qualify in seventh place. The first race was good and I was leading a nice group of riders. In the end we finish in a fifth place. Unfortunately, we had a poor start in the second race, I struggled to make up positions during the race. We therefore had to settle for tenth place. I want to thank the EAB Racing Team for this weekend, we are going to get ready for the next race in Imola.”

The next race weekend will take place in two weeks at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari di Imola circuit. This will be held in the weekend from 14 to 16 July.

Good speed but not the results for EAB Racing Team in Misano

04/06/2023

Last weekend the EAB Racing Team rode the fifth race weekend of the FIM World Supersport Championship at the World Circuit Marco Simoncelli in Misano. A weekend with mixed feeling, we saw the dutchman at a seventh place in the first race and a 22nd place in the second race.

The weekend from two to four June was dominated by the race weekend in Misano. The entire weekend was held under summery conditions. The team had a good start during the free practices on Friday. Glenn had a good feeling with his Yamaha YZF-R6 and that gave him confidence for the rest of the weekend. After the two free practice sessions, we him in seventh place overall.

Glenn got into his rhythm during the Superpole session on Saturday morning. In the closing stages of this qualifying session he worked his way forward and managed to ride his Yamaha to fifth place on the grid. With this, Glenn was allowed to start the races in Misano from the second row.

The first race started on Saturday afternoon. Glenn had a good start and was able to hold his position. In the opening he was pushed wide by another rider. As a result, the 22-year-old rider lost several places. This made it difficult to ride forward. Glenn showed he had the right race pace and finished in seventh place.

On Sunday afternoon we saw the second race of the weekend. The race started well for Glenn, he kept his positions and fought at the head of the field. After a few laps, the Yamaha rider came into contact with another rider while overtaking, resulting in a crash. Glenn was able to pick up his bike and eventually finish the race in 22nd.

Glenn: “We showed all weekend that we have the right pace. On Friday we got off to a strong start during the free practice sessions. The Yamaha YZF-R6 felt good and I was able to work on my rhythm. During the Superpole I managed to qualify in fifth place. In the first race I was in a good position, unfortunately I was pushed wide and lost ground to the other riders. Nevertheless, we managed to achieve a good seventh place. The second race started strong, I managed to mix with the leading group, until I came into contact with another rider, resulting in a crash. Not how we wanted to end the weekend. I want to thank the EAB Racing Team for this weekend. On to Donington.”

The next race weekend will be held from June 30 to July 2 at Donington Park circuit in England.

In the weekend from friday 5 May to Sunday 7 May. A good weekend for the Dutch duo with a fourth place in race one and a fifth place in race two.

The opening day at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya circuit was difficult for Glenn. He started the first free practice well but was unable to continue in the second practice. The EAB Racing Team rider had to find the right feeling on a warm and sunny Spanish circuit.

During the Superpole session on Saturday morning, the 22-year-old from Hoogkarspel was able to make good progress compared to Friday. Glenn started the races from fifth on the grid.

On Saturday afternoon, the lights turned green for the first race of the weekend. Glenn had a good start but had some brake issues on the opening laps. He also had to get used to the feeling of a full tank. He rode at the end of the leading group for a long time, but had to let it go during the race, until the group fell apart. In the end, the young Dutchman fights his way back to the front with a good fourth place as a result.

Glenn rode his second race on Sunday in the early afternoon and finished in fifth place.

Double podium for EAB Racing Team during Italian championship wildcard

01/05/2023

Last weekend the EAB Racing Team and Glenn van Straalen rode as a wildcard rider in the Italian Supersport Championship (CIV). It was a good weekend at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli for the Dutch squad. With a second and first place, the young Dutchman had a good test in preparation for the world championship that will take place here at the beginning of June.

Friday we saw one free practice session and the first qualifying session. It is therefore important to create the right feeling with the motorcycle as quickly as possible. On Saturday morning it was time for the second qualifying session, followed by the first race of the weekend. Sunday afternoon we closed with the second race in the Italian championship.

During the first race there was a front group of four riders. It was a great race of fourteen laps, in which many positions were changed. It was exciting until the last moment and Glenn crossed the finish line in second place.

On Sunday afternoon we saw a copy of the first race. Again we saw a leading group of four riders, in which positions were changed several times. In the closing stages, the leader of the group made some mistakes, allowing the EAB Racing Team rider to take the lead and take home the victory.

Overall it was a positive weekend for the 22-year-old Dutchman, who was very pleased with the course of the race weekend in Italy afterwards.

Glenn: “It was a good training in Misano during the CIV Supersport Championship. We rode two good races in which we had nice fights for the lead. I’m happy with the two podiums here in Italy and the feeling with the Yamaha YZF-R6 is very good. We will now prepare for the fourth round of the world championship which will take place in Barcelona this weekend. I want to thank the EAB Racing Team for this weekend.”
