Quigley completes GBmoto Honda line-up

British Superbike Championship newc🅘omers GBmoto Honda have completed their rider line-up for the 🎐2012 season with the signing of Luke Quigley.

Quigley has maintained a presence in the BSB paddock since 2003ও, competing at Superbike, Supersport and Superstock level, though he enjoyed a career peak last season, riding a privately BMW to a win and third overall in the Superstock 1000 seri💖es.

It is a performance that has earnܫed him the opportunity to compete in the Superbike class aboard a Honda CBR1000RR alongside Tristan Palmer at GBmoto, which in turn is also stepping up from Superstock level in 2012.

"Y𓆉ou get nervous preparing to race but this winter has brought a different kind of pressure with interest from different teams," Quigley said. "When Mark came with an offer to ride in BSB, well, it's where I want to be. Every rider wants the best bike, in the be﷽st team, in the best possible championship, against the best riders. It's been awesome really running my own team.

"It's good experience doing things you🎀rself, but Mark (Smith-Halvorsen - Team Principal) has given me the oppor😼tunity to concentrate more on my racing. I think the series will be even more competitive. Hopefully there will be a good mix of riders up front and I think the Honda will be a great bike to be on.

"I'm looking forward to the opportunity. Mark's going all out 🉐to prove a point. He doesn't just want to be ꦯanother team in the paddock. He wants to be right up there and, being in a competitive team that wants to win, helps a rider's confidence."

Quig🥀ley becomes the 19th rider to be confirmed on the 2012 MCE British Superbike grid.
