Honda is looking to expand its presence in the British Supersport Championship next year followin𝄹g the success of the CBR600RR to the class in 2024.

The CBR60𒅌0RR returned to British Supersport this year as the model was reintroduced to Europe by the Japanese brand, having withdrawn it in 2018.

In some part because of this, Jack Kennedy’s 2024 triumph in the British Supersport Championship was the fi꧋rst for Honda in the cla🌠ss since Sam Lowes won the 2010 title.

“T🅺he CBR600RR was sort of phased out, if you like, from Europe,” Beltran🍨 told wuqian0821.com on Saturday at last weekend’s Brands Hatch BSB, following Kennedy’s title-clinching Race 1 victory.

“So, we pulled back from support, or💎 developing or riding or anything else like that, and, as a team and as a Honda UK branch, decided not to support anybody [in British Supersport].

“However, with the revised version of the current 2024 CBR600RR we decided that it would be a great opportunꩲity to showcase that and put it back into the cham𒉰pionship.

“So�ꦺ�, last year’s planning for that was: who better to put on it than [...] Jack Kennedy?

“So, that was the plan, and t🍷oday the plan came to fruition, and heꦏre we are as 2024 Supersport Champions with Jack Kennedy.”

Looking forward to next year, Beltran said that Honda is looking to expand ꦑits presence in the British Supersport Championship.

“ꦦThe rules we’re running with this 💟is Next Generation,” he said.

“Next year it’s compulsory forꦡ all bikes in the class. However, there’s obviously a d🃏isparity between the Triumph, the Ducati, Suzuki, then you’ve got the Yamaha and the Honda with the inline-four.

“However, we’ve worked hard with the develo💛pment project with this, and we’re looking forward to sort ℱof the next phase, if you like, [so that] we can supply to all the other teams I plan to have in Supersport next year.

“We’ve gone from our two riders— starting off with Jack, then bringing in Dean [Harrison] to help evaluate and understand and help with develꩵopment — [and] next year I’d like to have six-to-eight riders out there in the championship.”
