Joe Francis will return to the FHO Racing line up for the Bennetts British Superbike Championship final at Brands Hatch this weekend.
His debut showing with the BMW outfit at Donington Park last time out, amid challenging conditions, saw Frances secure two top 10 finishes and a best result of sixth, with the 24-year-old returning to round out the 2021 season aboard the M1000 RR for the grand finale.
"I am really happy to have been given another opportunity to race with the FHO Racing BMW team at Brands Hatch,” Francis said. “I felt like we were making good progress at Donington Park in all conditions, and the extra time on the BMW M 1000 RR will only be a positive for me.
“I learnt a lot from the team at Donington Park, so I am looking forward to moving forward again next weekend and hopefully end the season with three strong finishes. I need to thank Faye and the FHO Racing BMW team for this second opportunity with them” he concluded.
“Joe impressed me with his approach at Donington Park; he was working with a new team and new bike, plus he had the changing conditions to contend with and that made it even more difficult, but he worked hard and took two top 10 finishes,” Team Owner Faye Ho added.
“I think with more time on the bike he will improve further this weekend. As a team owner I am happy to see our riders making progress, and that is why I wanted to offer him another chance to ride for us next weekend. Hopefully we can end the season on a high at Brands Hatch.”
