After winning the largest prize in road racing, the Senior TT, TAS Racing willꦦ withdraw from roa⛎d racing in 2025 focus on the short circuits.

The decision coincides with a move from BMW, with whom TAS first began its partnership almost 10 years ago in 2015, to Ducati and🐠 the Bologna brand’s Panigale V4 R Superbike, as well as its Panigale V2 Supersport 🌸machine.

“This is exciting for us,” saidꦍ TAS Racing team principal Philip Neill when speaking at the rec🐲ent Motorcycle Live show in Birmingham.

“You need to find new challenges 🍷I think after a certain a🙈mount of years, and this one came about through circumstance.

“But I can’t say how happy I am really. Ducati is an iconic brand; I’ve always admired them from a distance and💖 can’t wait for the opportunity to see what we can do.”

The switch to Ducati means that TAS, which this ไyear won the Senior TT (among numerous other road races) with Davey Todd, will not c🐲ontest any road races in 2025.

Neill doesn’t rule out a return to the roads for the Northern Irish team, but sa🔯id t♓hat the focus of the team’s attention now is on winning the BSB title — something Ducati has done on three occasions since the original V4 R hit the British Championship in 2019.

“What’s the saying, never s🅰ay never,” Neill said of TAS’s road racing future.

“It's in our blood, we enjoy that side of things.

“But it is time for us right now to focus on British Superbikes. We want to win that c🤡hampions🐟hip.

“We’ve had lots of success in the other categories, in Sup♛erstock and Supersport, and have come very close in Superbike several times. But now we need to put our focus and effort in to try and win Superbike.”
