Davey Todd: “It wasn’t a choice of my own to stay in Superstock last year…”
Davey Todd reflects on British Superbike s💝nub in 2024

Davey Todd has reiterated tha🔯t he didn’t want to rema𒁃in in the Superstock class in 2024.
Todd was overlooked in favour of Rory Skinner by TAS Racing for a British Super💯bike Championship race seat on their Cheshire Mouldings BMW last season.
However, with TAS Racing he claimed a ♋career-best year which yielded the Superstock title ꦫplus his maiden Isle of Man TT race win.
Todd’s 2025♚ has already included a major change - leaving FHO Racing, where he was set to team up with Peter Hickman, to co-founding 8T😼EN Racing together, with support from BMW Motorrad.
“It’s𓄧 been a change-up, I guess not so much last minute because it was sort of woꩵrked out a while back,” Todd told the .
“But it’s something really exciting that’s happened with ra🎃cing under a new banner with 8TEN Racing, myself and Hickman.
“We’re supported by BMW so we’re still on the M1000RR, the 2025 ෴model that’s just been built, and I’m back on the Padgett’s 600 as well – two things I’m really excited abo𒆙ut.
“No𒐪t saying too much, it wasn’t a choice of my own to stay in Superstock last year and I wanted to be in Superbike.
“So now I’ve got the opportunity to be in the🅘 Superbike class and I want to do a good job there as well.”
Skinner, who 🧸was pickꦰed instead of Todd by TAS Racing in 2024, finished 17th overall in the British Superbike Championship.
His ye🌼ar was highlighted by a victory at Knockhill, on home ground in Scotl﷽and.
However, Skinner’s season was also dis🥀rupted by injury.
TAS R🍃acing will switch from BMW to Ducati this year💝, and have signed up Skinner again.
Todd will have the opportunity to pit his wits again♐st Skinner - and against the TAS Racing team who overlooked him - over a full BSB cam🐻paign in 2025.
Todd is arriving꧒ into his debut B♔SB season after a career-best year.
He won races at all the major road racing events, including the Isle of Man TT, as well as capturing a second Nation🃏al Superstock🦂 title.
His new teammate Hickman was 15th in BSB in 2024.
