Road racing star Michael Dunlop has completed his shakedown test with the Buildbase BMW team with which he will compete in this year's International Road Races and selected Pirelli National Superstock rounds this season.

“It was good to have a run out for sure. The last time I was at Mallory Park was in 2005 so I just wanted to get out on the BMW and do as yesterday was my first time on the bike. It was good as all three of us were there and could compare. The Donington Park test is next and is a faster circuit so that should suit me well and all being well we can get some good laps in ready for Brands Hatch," said Dunlop.
