Following two successful seasons racing together in the Bennetts British Superbike Championship, Honda Racing and Tommy Bridewell have decided to conclude their collaboration.Bridewell joined the Louth based team in 2024 as the reigning British Superbike Champion to race the then all-new Fireblade. Rider and machine quickly gelled and visits to the rostrum came with remarkable frequency. Come the season’s end, Tommy celebrated nineteen podiums in total, including three impressive victories. More impressive still was the incredible championship battle that raged to the last lap of the last race of the season with fellow countryman Kyle Ryde. Whilst the championship fairytale was not to be for Bridewell, second place in the 2024 series standings by a single point showed that he and the Fireblade were a formidable pairing.

His sophomore year for Honda Racing too yielded success with a race victory at Honda’s home venue, Cadwell Park, as well as a further five podium finishes.

Honda Racing extends its sincere thanks to Tommy Bridewell for all of his hard work throughout the last two seasons together.

2024 – 3 wins 13 seconds 3 thirds (Championship standings: 2nd)

2025 – 1 win 5 thirds (Championship standings: 5th)

Tommy Bridewell

I want to thank Honda and all of the team for the last two seasons together. To have taken Honda back to the front in BSB has been a privilege and I am proud of the results that we achieved together. We came within a point of a title in our first year together and proved a lot of people wrong, and even though this year has been tough we have still pushed forward, won a race and scored podiums. I wish Honda all the best in the future.

Team Principal Neil Fletcher

I would like to thank Tommy for his remarkable contributions to Honda Racing over the past two seasons. Together we achieved race wins, podiums and came within a point of a championship title. His relentless commitment when on the bike is testament to the determination that he embodies, there are very few riders who, when the visor goes down and the lights go out, give quite as much as Tommy does. On behalf of everyone at Honda Racing I wish him well in his future racing and we look forward to sharing the race track again soon.
