Relentless 125GP team Repli-Cast will field multiple TT winner Ian Lougher as a replacement for the injured Robbie Stewart at Silverstone at Silverstone this weekend, and he will be joined by Thundersport regular Sam Hornsey.
Lougher, who competed on a Yamaha TZ125 at Scarborough last weekend, is well-known for his successes at the TT and in Ireland on both two-strokes and four-strokes, and also runs the Blackhorse Yamaha squad.
"Ian and I go back a long way, and during a conversation at Scarborough at the weekend, Ian mentioned he would like to do the last two BSB rounds on a competitive bike. With Robbie being out for the remaining rounds due to his injury, I offered Ian the ride for Silverstone and Oulton, I am really looking forward to working with him again," said team boss Gary Dawson.
"Young Sam Hornsey has impressed me from the first time I saw him racing at Thundersport, I offered him a ride within the team, not only due to his talent, but also because of his manners and his determination to succeed, which is what I look for within a rider. We welcome them both to the team."
