Rev2Race Racing Academy has announced the arrival of Jamie Hanks-Elliot to the team for the 2026 National Junior Sportbike Championship, lining up on the Yamaha R7.
Hanks-Elliot has most recently completed in the FIM Women’s Circuit Racing World Championship, but also has knowledge of the British circuits from her time in the British Junior Supersport and the BMW F 900 R Cup classes.
Jamie Hanks-Elliot said: “I’m really excited to be joining the Rev2Race team this year in the Junior Sportbike Championship. After a year away from BSB competing in the Women’s Circuit Racing World Championship, I’m looking forward to being back in the BSB paddock, and I’d like to thank Kev and the whole team for giving me this opportunity.
I’m privileged to be working with such an experienced team and can’t wait to get to work on the Rev2Race Yamaha R7. I truly believe I have the right people around me to achieve some strong results, and I’m putting in the work over the winter to make that happen.”
Rev2Race Racing Academy Team Principal, Kev Stephenson commented: “We’re really pleased to confirm that Jamie Hanks-Elliot will be joining us for 2026 to take on the new Junior Sportbike Championship.
“The Yamaha R7 has shown over the past few seasons that it’s a very solid and competitive package in the Pirelli National Sportbike Championship, so we feel it gives us a great platform heading into this project. Jamie brings a huge amount of experience with her, particularly on the R7 at world level last year, where she showed real speed and consistency.
“There’s still some time before we get on track and start testing, but both Jamie and the team are already putting in a lot of work behind the scenes to make sure we’re as prepared as possible. There’s a real sense of excitement surrounding the brand-new championship for 2026, and we’re excited to be part of it from the very start.”
