Lee Jackson made the decision to leave FS-3 Racing Kawasaki at the end of the 2023 season. For the 2024 season, he returned to the Hawk Racing squad with the MasterMac Honda outfit.
After returning to the British Superbike Championship in 2020, Jackson spent five years onboard a Kawasaki ZX-10RR. On his return to Hawk Racing, he made his debut on a Honda CBR1000RR-R after previously competing on a BMW from 2014 to 2017.
The 29-year-old was the second-highest Honda rider in the 2024 season. The satellite Honda rider ended up beating one of the Honda Racing UK official riders in the standings.
Jackson claimed four podiums in the 2024 British Superbike season, a second place and three-thirds. Like his teammate, Jackson's season was made by his level of consistency across the 32 races. The #14 failed to finish one of the 31 races he competed in.
Jackson only finished inside the top five on four occasions (when he stood on the podium). However, he was in the top ten on 15 further occasions, but he only failed to score points once throughout the whole season.
Next season Jackson will remain on a Honda CBR1000RR-R, but will be riding for a new team. After a short stint back at Hawk Racing Jackson will ride for DAO Racing in 2025.
