After the Armoy races, Davey Todd surprised everyone by announcing that, effective immediately, he was collaborating with the Milenco by Padgetts Honda team, with whom he had two wins and numerous top-three finishes in recent years at the North West 200 and in 2022 at his first podium in the Tourist Trophy race is over. He was immediately associated with the Honda factory team in his home country.
However, the 27-year-old Brit from North Yorkshire has signed a contract with the successful team TAS Racing, as the team from Northern Ireland has now announced. Todd returns to BMW brand motorcycles. In 2019 he was already the dominant figure in the Superbike category of the International Road Racing Championship (IRRC) in the team of the German Rico Penzkofer, which he won in a superior manner.
“TAS Racing is pleased to announce the signing of leading international road racer Davey Todd for the 2024 season. Milwaukee will continue its commitment as title sponsor with the support of BMW Motorrad. The team will once more compete under the Milwaukee BMW by TAS Racing banner. “He will be a great asset next season.”
“I’m looking forward to working with TAS Racing and the Milwaukee-BMW team, racing with them in the BSB for the last two races is great. The team has had a lot of success on the road over the past few years and having spent some time with the guys I know I have a top group of people around me and with the Milwaukee BMW M1000RR an equally great package.” Todd commented on his contract signing.
“Both my father and I look forward to having TAS Racing back at the Isle of Man in 2024. It’s great to continue our relationship with Milwaukee and BMW Motorrad, both of whom support our efforts in an unparalleled way. Davey is one of the most exciting prospects in racing. We’re delighted he’s joining us in 2024 and we can’t wait to start preparations,” said team boss Philip Neill.
Todd, who won the 2022 1000cc Superstock National Championship, will compete at Donington and Brands Hatch in the final two rounds of this year’s Bennetts British Superbike Championship on a Milwaukee BMW M1000RR.
