BSB: Honda Racing unveil 2018 colours

1 of 4

Honda Racing have lifted the covers off their 2018 Bennetts British Superbike contender ahead of returning to track action at Monteblanco next week.

The CBR1000RR Fireblade that will be campaigned by Dan Linfoot and Jason O’Halloran this year features the striking red, blue and white scheme seen on the road going Fireblade.

Linfoot and O’Halloran enjoyed a successful early pre-season test at Jerez in November and will return to the track next week in Monteblanco as they seek to improve for the 2018 season.

Last year proved tough for the Louth-based squad with the all-new Fireblade, but persistence and development saw Dan Linfoot clinch two wins on the bike before the end of the season while Jason O’Halloran secured a showdown spot.

The duo will be aiming much higher in 2018 though, as they enter their fourth consecutive year with the only manufacturer-run team in BSB.
