We are at Phillip Island for the opening round of the Eni World Superbike Championship and we caught up with Loris Baz, rider with the factory Kawasaki squad in the Eni World SBK Championship.

The French rider was called into the squad after the unfortunate incident that ended the career of Joan Lascorz.  He took the opportunity with both hands, however.  To date he has competed in 20 races in the World SBK Championship with a win a second and a third.  He won the Superstock 600 Championship in 2008 but since then struggled to get a full time ride in an international series.

Here we talk to Baz about how he came into the Kawasaki team, his 2013 chances and how he feels at the Phillip Island circuit.
