Brembo unveils round 4 of World Superbike in Assen
An in-depth look at the braking systems on the production-based motorcycles at TT Circuit Assen. The circuit was inaugurated in 1925 and at the time was about 28.4 km long. It was shortened to 7.7 km meter in 1955, then it underwent numerous modifications resulting in its current length of 4,542 meter. The circuit has hosted World Superbike without interruption since 1992. Three months prior, it was the stage for Mick Doohan's fall during qualifying laps for the 500cc class. It became impossible for him to use his war-torn right leg, so the Australian used the thumb brake master cylinder designed by #brembo engineers to return to the starting grid.
