Hickman said: “The opportunity to co-own and run 8TEN Rac𓃲ing alongside Davey is exciting, and having run my own team across other classes, the experience I have gained over the last🦩 few years should put us in good stead to be competitive.

“We know the M 1000 RR very well which will allow some contiꦺnuity, we’ll be looking to continue our success on the roads.”

Hickman’s crew chief will be Darren Jones, who held the same role for the ꦓrider’s previous TT accomplishments.

Todd said: “I’m really looking forward to this new chapter of my caree🅺r, riding and co-ownꦐing 8TEN Racing.

“T👍his struౠcture will be a new dynamic to learn, but I’ve seen it work across other motorcycle championships like Supercross.

“I’m exciteꦛd to be more involved in the dealings of the teꦜam, as well as build on the success I had with BMW last year.”

Todd’s crew chief will be Stewart Johnstone, who remꦑains in the role after their maiden TT win ✃together last year.

Scott Grimsdall,ꦦ BMW Motorrad Head of Marketing & PR said: “Peter and Davey have such enthusiasm for this new project and will receive continued support from BMW Motorrad Motorsport as they look to continue their respective achievements on the roads.

“With a new M 1000 RR for 2025, the🥃re is real op﷽timism among us that 8TEN Racing can deliver further success for the brand.”
