Insurance giant Bennetts have thrown their weight as title sponsors behind Martin Halsall’s official Suzuki MCE British Superbike team, and riders Josh Waters and Christian Iddon, with a two-year deal and option for a third season in 2017.

Bennetts boasts over 80 years’ experience in the insurance industry and has a long-standing affiliation with the British Superbike Championship, having been title sponsor for the series for four years between 2005 and 2008. The motorcycle insurance specialist also sponsors a number of racers both in the domestic championship and on the world stage.

“We’re delighted to have Bennetts onboard as a title sponsor for the British Superbike Championship; they bring a wealth of experience with them having been involved in the series for the last decade,” said team boss Martin Halsall.

“I see ourselves as an emerging force in British Superbikes with huge ambition to become an established and successful team , and this is recognised by everyone at Bennetts, who share the same ambition. This makes for the start of an exciting and rewarding partnership together and we can’t wait to get going.”
