This complements our current sponsorship of the domestic championship perfectly."

"It's great news to hear that the series is attracting further support from a leading UK brand," says SBK Superbike World Championship rider James Toseland. "I'm proud to be associated with Bennetts, the UK's number one for bike insurance and I believe that their sponsorship can have nothing but a positive effect on the Championship."
