Shane Byrne is suing the Britඣish Sup🐈erbike organiser for £1m after his career-ending injury.

Byrne suffered spin൲al injuries when he crashed and hit a tyre wall during a test at Snetterton circuit in 2018.

He is now suing British Superb🧜ike Championship organiser Motorsport Vision Racing, track owner Motorsport Vision and the sports's governing body, the Motorcycle Circuit Racing Control Board for damages totalling more than £1m.

Byrne argues that b𒊎etter safety measures sh𝓰ould have been in place at the circuit.

The organisers deny responsibility.

Byrne's barrister Kiril Waite is quoted by the : “He reached a speed of 120🧸mph on the straight. On his approach, he re🧔duced speed and it was at that stage that he lost control of the bike.

“The bike le🔯ft the track at a speed of about 60mph with Mr Byrne o༒n it.

“He travelled a distance of 55 to 60 metres before impact with the barrier. He dismounted sho🌱rtly before impact with the barrier.”

Byrne’s legal representativeꦍ showed a video of his riding skills in court, and said: “There are not many people who can handle a bike like Mr Byrne and the footage demonstrates that very clearly.”

He mentioned that Byrne ♓had safely completed a previous lap on the same racing line.

“The𒈔refore, the speed and position cannot be criticised as being at fault for what happened.”

Barrister Malcolm Duthiꦡe is representing the thre🥀e defendants.

H𝕴e says that the organisations deny Byrne’s claim that ai🐻r fencing would have prevented his injury.

T𝄹hey allege that Byrne’s injury could have happened even if he didn’t hit the tyre wall.

Byrne, now 47ജ, is a six-time British Superb𒁏ike champion.

The trial is ongoing.
