Tommy Bridewell “disappointed” after crashing twice in WSBK wildcard
"I’ve kept my head down and just kept working"

Tommy Brid𒅌ewell’s wildcard round in the World Superbike Champio𓆏nship did not go to plan.
Days after missing out on retaining his British Superbike Champion🐻ship at the hands of Kyle Ryde, Bridewell was back in action in Jerez🍷 on the world stage.
His run-out on the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP was predominantly to learn a different electronics package 🍰to his BSB bike, and to distribute the data to the manufacturer’s other riders.
B💜ridewell finished 20th in the Superpole race but crashed out early in Race 1 and Race 2.
“It’s been a bit of a frus𒉰trating weekend for sure, but I’ve kept my head down and just kept working with the team to get through our program,” he admitted.
“I’m happy with the progress🎐 that we made over the weekend but in trut🐲h I’m disappointed with the weekend and not finishing all three races.
“But look, we’ve learnt so🌠me new things as a team and improved the package a little bit more.
“The hard work♔ isn’t over yet as we’ve got another couple of days testing this week.”
Bridewell is back on the Firꦍeblade🐬 in Jerez for the two-day WSBK test on Tuesday and Wednesday, the first look towards the 2025 season.
