The Splitlath Motorsport team joined the British Superbike Championship for the first time in 2010 after competing the previous season in the National Superstock 600 Championship.
The team launched an ambitious double attack on the Evo title running a pair of Aprilia RSV4s for the first time in BSB history, with Hudson Kennaugh finishing the season as runner up.
The team continued to field Aprilias in the 2011 championship with the team celebrating podium success in the Evo class.
With the London 2012 Olympics only months away it is highly appropriate that Derek Redmond joins the team as co-owner. Redmond is one of Britain's greatest ever 400m Olympic athletes, winning gold medals in World, European and Commonwealth championships.
The team have yet to score a points finish this season as they continue to focus on the development of the Aprilias, but with Marino getting to grips with the UK tracks and Laverty improving since his return from injury it won't be long before they do.
"As a co-owner at Splitlath Redmond this will be my first season in the British Superbike Championship. As an experienced Evo team we have the know-how to go well from the outset and I think we will shock a few people in 2012." Derek Redmond, Team Owner
