Honda British Talent Cup rider Eddie O’Shea is set to take the next step on the Road to MotoGP in 2021 as the Brit has been chosen to race in the Junior Talent Team contesting the FIM Moto3 Junior World Championship, in addition to his previously-announced promotion to the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup.

O’Shea had an impressive 2020 season showcasing both speed and progress, leading the HBTC standings for much of the year before just losing out on the crown in the season finale at Brands Hatch.

His performances throughout the season have earned him the chance to move into the FIM Moto3™ Junior World Championship, where he will race with Dorna’s Junior Talent Team in British Talent Team colours.

The line-up for the 2021 Junior Talent Team comprises three returning Idemitsu Asia Talent Cup riders in addition to O’Shea.
