Luke Hedger will line up in the Pirelli National Superstock 1000 Championship this season after signing a new deal with the EHA Racing team.

Hedger has previously been a contender in the Dickies British Supersport Championship and moves into the Superstock class this season with the team, with a full test programme now underway ahead of the opening round of the season at Donington Park next month.

“I am so happy to get the deal signed with EHA Racing to ride the Aprilia.  I have wanted to ride with these guys since the last round at Brands Hatch and it’s made my day for EHA to say yes to me and take me on. I believe the bike will be an animal, the best bike on the grid, and with the team around me I feel that I have the best package,” he said.

“Thank you to my sponsor SRS who have been backing me for a while now, I couldn’t do it without them and a big thank you to my family who have supported me my whole career. I just can’t wait to get started now.”
