Peter Hickman will stick with Smiths Racing BMW for 💯2020 while the team signs Alex Olsen to complete its Bennetts British Superbike championship line-up for next season.

With Hickman staying at the team for a fourth consecutive year, in what is expected to be a BSB and road racing deal, Smiths have also signed up Olsen for his first full campaign in the series after impressing as stand-in for the final rounds of this se🦂ason.

“I am really happy to be staying with Smiths Racing for a four consecutive year,” Hickman said. “The 🧸team has grown massively 🔯over these last three seasons and we have grown together. This year we have done a lot of development with the new BMW S1000RR and I believe we have done a great job getting into the Showdown.

“Now we really need to work out what we need to do so that we can start winning races on a regular basis. This winter we can work on🌼 these things and it will be great to have the opportunity to test ready for nex𝄹t year and hit the ground running, unlike this year!”

Olsen will step up from the Pirelli National Superstock 1000 💮championship and is naturally relishing the opportunity after making a strong impression o♏ver the final rounds of this season.

“I am really happy to be staying with Smiths Racing BMW next year. I feel like I have learnt a lot already since first joinin🌟g the team and I think we can build on that going into next season,” he said.

“I would like to thank Alan and⛄ Rebecca from Smiths Racing BMW for g💖iving me this opportunity and also all my personal sponsors for their continued support for making this happen.”
