Tommy Bridewell has explained the status of his ongoing adaptation from the Ducaꦺti to Honda.

The British Superbike ch🌜ampion opted to defend his ti🐠tle with different machinery this year, by joining Honda Racing UK.

He scored his f💖irst podium on a Honda at the l൩ast BSB round at Oulton Park.

The third round of the 2024 British Superbike season 📖is this weekend at 🧸Donington Park.

“Going into this weekend, it seems that the bike works very well at Donington Park,” Bridew꧃ell said.

“At the test, before the season had started, we had high winds and we were just working on feeling whe🦹n we were there.

“It was my first ever time on the bike, but with the wind a💎nd everything against us, we were still up at the sharp end, in the top six, top seven somewhere.

“I think since the Donington Park te♔st we’ve made some improvements with my feeling with the Honda and understanding the bike, and we’ve made some steps with electronics which 𓂃is good.

“I think fundamentally for this weeken🔯d we should have a step with the engine from Oulton Park.

“We’ll hopefully have a litt🙈le more power and we have just 💫got to keep building.

“This time of the year f🐎or me is all about consolidating and building points on the board - just keep putting points on the board! We’re in a good position and that’s what we’ve got to build on.”

Bridewell is happy with his results and performances at the f💖irst two rounds, his first outings on the Honda Fireblade.

“I think really for me in truth, thไe first two rounds have been a lot more promising than perhaps we anticipated with having a brand new bike,” he said.

“Yes, we’ve had some teething issues, but our actual pace over race distan𒅌ce over the shorter race and over practice sessions has been really strong.

“We’ve always, every single session, bee🌊n in the top four or five are꧅a consistently.

“For me, Navarra was aꦿ bigger surprise. We had a few issues there, but obviously Oulton Park was a circuit that I know well and that I go really well at.

“It was nice to get my first podium of the year and the first podium for Honda in a really long time. We had some slight limitations at Oulton Park, but we got absolutely eveꦗry ounce out of the bike, which is the main thing.”
