"I'm delighted that ou𒅌r application has been successful and this will be a real test for us which I'm looking forward to. It's been a tough🔯 year all round but to round it off with some World Championship points would be awesome and that's what I'm aiming to do.

"Because this is surplus to our plans, both my dad and I are financing it to a greater extent but it's too good an opportunit⭕y to miss and it's good to see Old Ginger's bike finally getting used🤪 where it should be!"
