Forés on 2021 return: “I have unfinished business in BSB”

04 November 2020

Xavi Forés will return to the Bennetts British Superbike Championship next season as the Spanish star joins the all-new FHO Racing team for his second campaign in Britain, lining up on the all-new BMW M 1000 RR Superbike alongside Peter Hickman.

Forés is no stranger to Bennetts BSB, having scored four podium finishes in his debut season in 2019, and narrowly missing out on securing a place in the Showdown before returning to the Superbike World Championship in 2020.

Forés said: “I enjoyed my time in BSB but maybe not so much in WSB last season, so to come back with such a high level team is a chance for me to sort some unfinished business in the championship! The level of competition, machinery and the support from the fans in Britain is incredible and I must say really surprised me to start with.

“When I raced here in 2019 I had never seen these tracks and many were very tricky to beat experienced regular riders, but now I feel confident that with one year of experience and better preparation, we can do much better.  I have been in contact regularly with Faye, she is very motivated, and the project is very strong to give us the tools to fight at the front.”
