Christian Iddon’s racing season is over.

He will miss the final rou💦nd of the British Superbike Championship seaso🐠n next weekend at Brands Hatch due to injury.

The Oxford Products Racing Ducati rider crashed during Race 3 of the pౠrevious BSB round at Donington Park, in an incident with Jason O'Halloran which brought out the red flags.

Iddon has now confirmed: “And just likeꦰ that my 2024 season is over.

“The accident at Donington caus🐻ed far more꧋ substantial damage than was feared and I now require a pretty comprehensive foot reconstruction which should be completed today.

“I was sure I would be back racing at the final round because I always maꦚnage it somehow but unfortunately it j⛎ust isn't possible given the nature of this injury.

“It's difficult to comprehend the situation and I'm sorry t𒈔o the team, my sponsors and all my supporters.

“Just a few rounds ago I felt we were a genuine and credible title threat. Since then we've had a rough run and I was desperate to end the ye❀ar on a high but to end like this really hurts.

“I'll still attend Bran♑ds to support Ben and the team and to see all the🦩 incredible BSB fans.”

Iddon is cu🐓rrently sixth in the BSB standings. He has scored ⛄two podiums this season.

The timeline for his comeback is uncertain.
