Hampshire Motorcycles have signed a new two-year deal with current title sponsor Tsingtao beer to remain in the MCE British Superbike Championship until the end of 2016 and will run two riders in the blue riband class from next season.

Team boss Dave Tyson is keen to retain the services of his Pirelli National Superstock 1000 series leader Danny Buchan and will also place another rider alongside the Essex man.

“It is great to have such a strong relationship with Tsingtao and our agreement to go forward for another two years in BSB gives our team a great sense of security,” said Tyson.
