Ian Lowry - 2008
The Relentless Suzuki by TAS Racing team have confirmed their second signing for the 2009 British Superbike Championship, Ian Lowry.
The 22-year-old will be joining Atsushi Watanabe next season, which means that there is no room for Michael Laverty in the team.
Philip Neill, the team Principle said,
“After completing three successful supersport campaigns for Relentless Suzuki, I believe Ian has a very bright future in the superbike class and will prove to be the perfect partner for Atsu, combining youth with experience. I also firmly believe that Ian’s style and physical presence is better suited to riding a superbike, and although he has limited experience in the class at this stage, we have already planned an extensive training and testing programme; this will give Ian the best opportunity to succeed at the highest level of British championship racing.”
Ian Lowry said,
“I am delighted to have been given the opportunity, not only to stay with Relentless Suzuki by TAS Racing, but also to get a crack at the British Superbike class. I watched BSB on TV as a kid and to be racing in it next year is unbelievable. I do believe I can deliver for the team and I’ve set myself achievable targets. To be working with a factory supported team like Relentless Suzuki is the icing on the cake and I’m sure Atsu’s experience will prove invaluable. It will take a lot of hard work and dedication but I’m up to the task and highly motivated.”
