Dungannon teenager Jack Burrows will make his British Supersport debut with the SCARS Racing Ducati team next month.<\/p>\n
The 16-year-old will ride for the team alongside championship leader Luke Stapleford in the final British Supersport races of the year at Brands Hatch.<\/p>\n
Burrows currently sits joint third in the British Moto4 Championship, with his season concluding at Donington Park. <\/p>\n
The Brands Hatch wildcard provides the talented young rider with the opportunity to step up to Supersport machinery and experience the highly competitive BSB paddock.<\/p>\n
“I’m absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to make my British Supersport debut at Brands Hatch with SCARS Racing Ducati,” said Burrows.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been racing my Moto3 since 2022, so I feel now is the right time to take the next step and challenge myself on a Supersport machine.<\/p>\n
“I’m under no illusions about how big a step it will be competing in the British Championship, but to be offered this wildcard on merit is something I’m really proud of.<\/p>\n
“Having Luke as my teammate is another massive positive. He’s a front runner in the championship, so I’ll be watching and learning from him throughout the weekend.”<\/p>\n
Burrows has already gained experience on a Supersport machine this season, becoming the youngest-ever race winner in the class during the Supersport event in Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dungannon teenager Jack Burrows will make his British Supersport debut with the SCARS Racing Ducati team next month.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":909160,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[572],"tags":[64,63,806,805,803,804,85],"class_list":["post-909159","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-motosport","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-motor","tag-motor-sports","tag-motosport","tag-motosports","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/909159","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=909159"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/909159\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/909160"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=909159"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=909159"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=909159"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
