Dan Linfoot will be back in the MCE British Superbike Championship next season after signing with G♔Bmoto Honda.

Linfoot completes the te💦am's line-up alongside Peter Hi🔥ckman.

He was left reeling after being ﷺdropped by the Mahi Kawasaki team for the 2013 World Supersport Championship.

Linfoot joined the Kawasaki outfit midway through this season when𝄹 it was running under the MSD R-N banner and secured a shock podium finish at Magny-Co൲urs in the final round.

However, despite being told a ride was available for 2013, Linfoot was left out of the team, wh♉ich has secured factory backing from Kawasaki and will field reigning champion K🧸enan Sofuoglu and Fabien Foret instead.

However, Linfoot is now looking ahead to his BSB return and hopes🐟 to make amends for his World Supersport disappointment.

"I'm over the moon to reach this agreement with GBm🔥oto and to be back co🔯mpeting in BSB," he said.

"I've had a ver𝕴y scattered past few seasons and feel I can make a 'home' w༺ith this team.

"Mark (Smith-Halvorsen) is ver🍷y driven to succeed in BSB and of c🍌ourse I hope to fit the bill and reach targets that we set.

"BSB is an ultra compe🌜titive series, which is✱ continually being proven as the place to be, so I'm very pleased to be on-board with GBmoto," he added.

"It is great ♔to be riding alongside Peter (Hickman) and working with Matt Llewellyn as my crew chie﷽f.

"A huge thanks to Mark and his group of🐷 backers for putting their belief in me and I'm really looking forw🌠ard to 2013."

Te🦩am manager Terry Liquorish believes Linfoot has all the credentials to beco🧜me a leading contender in BSB.

"Dan is one of the best riders in the UK and, despite his relatively young age, he has a we🅘alth of experience that's been gained at the highest levels of motorcycle racing," he said.

"There is no doubt that he is capable of challenging for top ✃honours in the MCE British Superbike championship.

"The addition of Matt Llewellyn as crew chief for Dan is also another indication of our commitment to build the team's strength and capabilities▨, right across the board, and offer a solid return for our sponsors and other 🎃partners."
