Former Moto3 World Championship rider Danny Webb will join the Sencat by Swan Racing Aprilia team this weekend (August 8/9/10) at Thruxton, making his Bennetts British Superbike Championship debut as Lewis Rollo continues his recovery from pre-season injury.
Webb joins the team with his most recent experiences in the FIM Endurance World Championship in addition to competing in seven years of Grand Prix level racing in the 125cc and Moto3 classes.
Webb said: “I’m really looking forward to racing at Thruxton with the team. I’ve not rode a BSB spec bike before and haven’t been to Thruxton for a few years, so there is no expectations. I am coming to enjoy riding and helping improve the package with my experience, it should be a great opportunity.
“I’m also looking forward to racing in the UK with the home crowd, which I don’t do that often. A big thanks to the Sencat by Swan Racing Aprilia team for giving me the opportunity.”
