TAG Racing Joins Honda Racing UK For 2021 Bennetts British Superbike Championship

TAG Fireblade Hoo-Rah

With Triumph recently confirming their interest in pursuing victories in the 2021 Bennetts British Superbike Championship, it appears like the big move has attracted some other popular names in the racing world to shake things up in the series.

TAG Racing is no stranger to motorsport so it should be a game-changer to have Honda Racing join forces with them with the addition of some shiny Fireblades for their riders to saddle-up on. TAG Racing will be blessed with telemetry data from Honda as well as new parts as they are developed and tested.

The new Fireblade will be ridden by Dan Linfoot after his successful debut racing year in the series.

“Being back on a Honda is very exciting for me, it goes without saying the new bike is very impressive, what Andy and Glenn did with it last season was very impressive and hopefully we can carry that on into the new season with the support from Harv and the Honda Racing UK team.” said Linfoot.

“I can’t wait to get going now, it’s an exciting project to be a part of and everyone in the team is fully focussed on getting back to where we both know we can be,” he continued. “From the conversations I’ve had with Shaun the bike is brilliant out of the box, so I’m very confident the superbike will be even better.”

Hopefully this new partnership will bring a new outlook to the TAG Racing team after a miserable 2020 season development ending prematurely due to ongoing issues with their Yamaha R1.

The racing season will start at Oulton Park, May 1st 2020.
