Bradshaw out of retirement to race Suzuki
South African Neౠv Bradshaw is coming out of retirement to race a Heads & All Threads Suzuki RMZ250 in the British Championship on Sunday. The 31-year-old quit full-time racing in the Spring after unsuccessful rides on a Husqvarna then a Yamaha, preferring to race fun races and concentrate on his training school.
But with Suzuki's Harri Kullas now getting the call-up for the factory Husqvarna GP team, Northampton-based Bradshaw is back in action in the Britis𒊎h series on a track he goes really well at.
"I never stopped riding because I didn't love it any more, it just came to a point where I kind of had to, and it's great to have a opportunity like this to come along. Neil Prince came to me with the deal, I've tested the bike, and I'm really impressed. It's cool to be back with a team that has the support there," said Bradshaw. "It's something I still want to do, and I've been lucky that I've been able to keep my eye in. I never stopped training and I still try to ride as much as I can, so hopefully I can fit straight back into a team.
Foxhill is always a ha🐟rd track, so I'll just go out there and do the best I can for three races and see how we come out of it."
Team manager Neil Prince said: "Nev's a top professional rider and we know he'll go out and give 120%, he's one of those riders that deserves a good ride. His work work ethic and the way he trains is great, there was no question about🍷 getting him on to the RMZ250 really. ﷽We're sorry to see Harri depart from the team and we wish him all the best in the GPs"
