Alex Lowes' right hand man at the track is Ian Prestwood. A Crew Chief for the past five years, the Lincoln-based technician, who has been a motorcycle mechanic since 1990, was alongside Lowes for his title-winning year in the British Superbike Championship - a series he had, until now, spent the majority of his career in. The start of 2016 saw Prestwood introduced to the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship as he reaffirmed the successful partnership, once again joining Lowes as he moved to the Pata Yamaha Official WorldSBK Team. With nine race weekends now under his 'rookie' belt, Yamaha Racing caught up with him to find out how his debut season was going on the world stage.
