Oxford Products Racing Ducati to Debut in the Supersport Class with the Ducati Panigale V2 for the 2023 Season.
The Winchester based racing team Oxford Products Ducati have had a great deal of success in the Superbike class and are now setting their sights on a Supersport championship title challenge with Australian rider Ben Currie.
The bike will be built at the Moto Rapido superbike workshop in Winchester to the same specification as the World Championship machines, working together with the team’s technical partners Termignoni and K-tech as they bid for championship victory. The team have already started preparing the bike with a full testing programme commencing in the New Year.
Ben Currie
It is a dream come true to join the Moto Rapido team to ride a Ducati in the British Championship. I honestly cannot wait to ride the V2, I have been racing against it all year in the World Championship and it looks super strong. With a year under its belt racing at that level, combined with the experience of the team, I’m confident that we can challenge for the title. For now, the key is to prepare for next year.
Steve Moore – Team Owner
This is certainly a new challenge for us to make our class debut, but with the information about the Panigale V2 we have from helping several champions in the TriOptions Cup it is the natural next step for our team.
We are very happy to have secured Ben as our rider and welcome him to the team. Having been a front-runner in British Supersport, we will use his expertise of the class, along with our technical team from the Superbike side of the garage to help him and we expect development progress to be swift.
It’s fantastic to see Ducati UK and Ducati Corse so excited about this challenge. They are keen to showcase the Panigale V2 in the UK and have been fantastic with the technical guidance we have already received.
