JG Speedfit Kawaski Team Owner, Pete Extance, added: “We are very pleased to be welcoming Carole Nash on board at JG Speedfit Kawasaki and hope that this will be the start of a long and fruitful partnership. It’s a fantastic brand to be associated with and we’re all very excited for the season. Of course we will be hoping to see either Leon or Luke take this year’s crown come October and James Hillier secure wins and podiums at the International Road races.”

The 2018 BSB season gets underway at Donington Park on 31st March and will end with the Brands Hatch GP between 12th-14th October.
