The Under-23 world champion is making the step up to race in the Elite Men's level this weekend - having originally planned to race the Under-23 category.
Bearman says learning on new tracks around the world means he knows there's not too much to be had from having home advantage - but every per cent counts.
Fellow Under-23 racer Megan Williams is also racing in her respective Elite Women's category this weekend.
