Glen Richards to join Honda TT Legends in Qatar

Honda TT Legends rider Cameron Donald will be replaced by fellow Australian and former Honda BSB contender Glen Richards for the final round of the 2011 Endurance World Championship in Qatar this weekend. Donald suffered a wrist injury after falling down a flight of stairs just prior to departure from his hometown of Melbourne, Australia and is unable to compete.

Team Manager Neil Tuxworth explains: We are obviously very disappointed that Cameron will not be racing in Qatar this weekend. The good news is that Glen has been able to step in at short notice and is on his way from Australia now. Looking on the positive side, Glen has ridden at the Losail Circuit before, finishing second here in an endurance race, and he has good experience on the Honda Fireblade having won the 2011 BSB Evo Championship on the bike, so he should be a strong addition to the rider line-up.

The 8-hours of Doha will take place at 1pm (Arabia Standard Time) on Saturday 12 November.
