Ducati have confirmed a new link-u🌠p with a British Superbikes Championship team.

TAS Racing will form a new as🍸sociatꦆion with Ducati for the 2025 BSB season.

Cheshire Mouldings will remain the title sponsor for TAS Racing, while Milwaukee♋ will stay as a valued partner.

But the team will change their machinery from BMW🦋 to Ducati.

Rory Skinner will♌ stay 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 major success in BSB with various riders and team – I firmly believe we ﷺcan 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 TAS Racing.”

Skinner claimed a first BSB w﷽in at Knockhill this season but his year was disrupted by injury.

Edoardo Colombi, an 18-year-old Italian, will represent the𒀰 team in the Super🧔sport class.

Colombi said: “I have very much enjoyed my first season on 𒐪British tracks and to come so close to winning a title was enjoyable and will set me up well for the British Superspor🔥t 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 Cheshire Mouldings Ducati by TAS Racingဣ.”

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 opportunity 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 t🌟he future.

“None of this would be pos♎sible without the support of our commercial partners, so to eꦇxtend our title partnership with Cheshire Mouldings and continued support from Milwaukee really is a dream scenario for us.”
