Looks like they have signed Dan Linfoot as one rider. He's a really nice bloke so hope he can deliver for Honda.
yeah I enjoyed blasting past him into park corner at Cadwell this year... ok so he was following a novice, but hey, I overtook Dan Linfoot lol
Yep, overtaken Dan as well. Trouble is he was the instructor and I misread his signal. But hey I've overtaken a BSB Rider on track
Here y'all go............ Honda (UK) will make a full-time return to the MCE Insurance British Superbike Championship in 2015. The former title-winners have today (Wednesday) announced their two rider line-up of Dan Linfoot and Jason O'Halloran, who will both compete aboard the Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade. Having secured the MCE British Superbike title in 2013 with Alex Lowes, Honda (UK) made the decision not to compete in a full-time capacity in 2014, using the season as a development year for the CBR1000RR Fireblade. During that time, French rider Julien Da Costa has contested four wildcard rides for Honda Racing and the team has completed a number of valuable private testing sessions with O'Halloran on board. With the development year under its belt and a new rider line-up in place, the Honda Racing team is ready to return in full force to the 2015 Championship. Nick Campolucci, Head of Motorcycles, Honda (UK), said: The decision to take a year out of the MCE British Superbike Championship was not taken lightly and it was not our preferred option at the time, but with hindsight it has proved to be incredibly valuable. The team has been able to complete a successful testing programme, under which the CBR1000RR Fireblade race machine has undergone some significant improvements, and we're ready to come back to the championship fighting fit and with a really strong rider line-up in Jason and Dan. We're very positive about the year ahead and eager to see what the season will bring." Havier Beltran, Honda Racing team manager, commented: "We're obviously very pleased to be returning to MCE BSB for 2015 and happy to have Jason and Dan on board. Both riders have an incredibly positive attitude and they are both hungry for success, so there is no doubt in my mind that the two of them will make an excellent team. Couple that with all the hard work that the team has done over the past year in testing and developing the Superbike package and I'm confident that 2015 will see Honda Racing return to the championship in a strong position and capable of achieving top results."
