British Superbike rideꦇrs Kyle Ryde and Glenn Irwin donated their podium bonuses from the recent Dꩵonington round to the families of Owen Jenner and Shane Richardson.

Jenner, 21, and Richardson, 29, were tragically killed in a multi-rideܫr incident in a Supersport race during the Oulton Park season-opener earlier this month.

The news led to an outpouring of support from the racing community in the aftermath, with numerous riders dedicating results in that week’s North West 200 toꦿ Jenner and Richardson.

Following podiums at the recent Donington round of the BSB series, Irwin and Ryde both pledged to d൲onate their bonus money for these results to the families of Jenner and Richardson.

Irwin is reported by the Ne🌸ws Letter as saying: “Like Kyle, we were at the North West 200 last week and we both said we would donate some bonus money to the families of Shane and Owen Jenner.

“So, Kyle done it yesterday [Saturday]. I didn’t get much for third, £1000, but we’ll give £500 to Shane’s kids and £500 towards Owen’s family for however it ♓may helm them.”

Irwin later added on social media: “Full respect to Kyle ♛Ryde.

“We spoke about this 🐼at the North West 200 last week and have b🔜oth been able to fulfil this.

“Money will never bring Own and Shane back, but if it can help bring🦂 a little happiness to Shane’s kids and help Owen’s family in any way, I am glad to be able to help in a small way.”

Irwin currently sits second in the British✤ Superbike standings after round two at Donington Park, with the PBM Ducati rider narrowly missing out on victory in the final race.

He is currently 12 points off champion🐠ship leader Bradley Ray, after the Raceways Yamaha rider completed a hat-trick of wins at Donington.

Reigning BSB champio🌜n Kyle Ryde is third in the points, 20 adrift of Ray after a bracౠe of podiums at Donington on his OMG Yamaha.

BSB will resume on ☂20-22 June at Snetterton🌞 for the third round of the 2025 championship.
