BMW-to-Ducati swap for a BSB team, a major change for 2025
Huge change which will impact Rory Skinner

Ducat🃏i have confirmed a new link-up with a British Superbikes Championship team.
TAS Ra♔cing will form a new association with Ducati for the 2025 BSB 🌄season.
Cheshire Mouldings will remain the title sponsor for TAS Racing, whil🐻e Milwa꧃ukee will stay as a valued partner.
But the team will change their machinery from ൩BMW to 🔯Ducati.
🦩Rory Skinner will sꦯtay with the team for a second year into 2025, and will ride the Panigale V4 R.
Skinner said: “First of all I am delighted to remain in the TAS Racing set up for 2025. We enjoyed a win this season in BSB and with a change of machinery to Ducati for 2025 – a bike that has been a maj♏or success in BSB with various riders and team – I firmly believe we can be at the sharp end all year.
“It’s an honour to be representing such a prestigious brand and I’m sure the bike will have a stand out appearance in Cheshire Mouldings Ducati livery, prepared by TA𝐆S Racing.”
Skinner claimed a first BSB win a🐎t Knockhill this season but his year was disrupted by injury.
Edoardo Col𝓡ombi, an 18-year-old Italian, will represent the 🉐team in the Supersport class.
Colombi said: “I have very much enjoyed my first season on Britis📖h tracks and to come so close to winning a title was enjoyable and will set me up well for the British Supersport Championship.
🅰“To come to a team like TAS Racing with so much history is exciting for me and to be riding the Ducati V2, which I know is a great bike, is also something to look forward to very much. The team has already made me very welcome and I cannot wait to get started on the Che✃shire Mouldings Ducati by TAS Racing.”
Philip Neill, Team Principal, said: “We are extremely happy to announce this new relationship with Ducati. On a personal level I have always admired Ducati and wondered if we might ever have the opportunit༺y to race with this iconic brand.
“We are really pleased to continue with Rory for a second year, and also🦄 to welcome Edoardo to TAS Racing. I believe these two young riders are a perfect combination and together with the proven capabilities of both the Ducati V4 R and V2 machinery, we are excited for the future.
“None of t♛his would be possible without the support of our commercial partners, so to extend our tit🐓le partnership with Cheshire Mouldings and continued support from Milwaukee really is a dream scenario for us.”
