After one season in the Moto2 World Championship, Skinner is making a return to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:British Superbike aboard an M 1000 RR.

A former British Supersport champion, Skinner joined the British Superbike class with FS-3 Raci𝔍ng Kawasaki, becoming a consistent podium finisher in his second season as he went 🦩on to finish eighth in the standings. 

Skinner then joined the American Raꦿcing 𒁏team in Moto2 on a two-year deal, but was axed before the second season in favour of Marcos Ramirez.

But the Scottish🌺 rider has found a new home and will be riding a BMW for the first time in his career with TAS Racing.

“I’m really looking forward to getting started with the Cheshire Mouldings by TAS Racing BMW ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚteam,” said Skinner. “The crew that Philip Neill has put together for me is very exciting, and to be able to bring my crew chief Stuart Shenton from Grand Pri꧙x is a major plus.

“Seeing the bikes for the first time at the launch just made it feel that bit mo♚re real, and I’m sure everyone will agree, they look absolutely superb.

“It’s going to be an exciting season coming back to BSB and ▨being able to race in front of the B🍎ritish fans is always very special. I can’t wait to get underway."

Skinner’s return to BSB will only add to an already very talented g🥃rid, led by 2023 series champion Tommy Bridewell who has left Ducati for Honda.

Discussing his new rider and the team’s new title sponsor Cheshire Mouldings, team principal Philip Neill said: “It’s been the usual winter rollercoaster getting everything in place, and with 2024 being our 25th year of competition under the TAS Racing banner, we wanted to make sure we did everything possꦡible to get back where we belong – at the sharp end of all competition.

“First of all let me welco𝐆me our new title partners for 2024, Cheshire Mouldings. Long standing support🌞ers of two-wheel motorsport, we did have a lower level association with them last year, but we look forward to flying their brand livery this season in both British Superbike and the National Superstock series.

“In the Superbike class we are delighted to have been able to bring Rory back tܫo BSB where I think eve𓂃ryone would agree, he was about to become a big star before he left for Moto2.

“We’re delighted he has chosen TAS Racing, where he will campaign the Cheshire Mouldingsᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ BMW M 1000 RR.
