As Furygan and racing heritage have gone hand in hand since 1969, the French motorcycle protection specialist proudly continues its support in 2024 of British talent across several two-wheel high-level competitions, including the British Superbike Championship (BSB) season starting on 20th April.
Furygan extends its sponsorship of seven racers from the United Kingdom, including six English riders and Isle of Man TT legend Michael Dunlop from Northern Ireland, who will all display the Furygan ‘panther’ on their leathers.
This weekend, the first round of the 2024 British Superbike Championship will take place at Circuito de Navarra, Spain. Max Cook, who had a strong debut season in 2023, is returning with the FS-3 Kawasaki team. Oliver Barr will make his debut in the BSB Supersport premier class on the Binch Racing Yamaha R6.
Two English riders competing in the FIM Junior GP World Championship, includes 17-year-old Eddie O’Shea, and 16-year-old Evan Belford – both competing with Honda.
In the Supersport World Championship (that takes place at almost every Superbike World Championship round), is 28-year-old rider, Tom Booth-Amos of PTR Triumph World Supersport. While 20-year-old Scott Ogden, is racing in the Moto3 World Championship for MLav Racing.
Michael Dunlop, from Northern Ireland, is well known for being an Isle of Man TT legend, with 25 wins to his name. Dunlop is also just one win short of matching his late uncle, Joey Dunlop who achieved 26, and two wins away from becoming the greatest Isle of Man TT racer in history – an accomplishment that appears in reach this year.
Outside the UK, accomplished French MotoGP racer, Johann Zarco, is one of the most notable Furygan sponsored riders.
In 2024, Zarco will look to achieve further success in his first season with CASTROL Honda LCR.
