BSB: Danny Buchan Re-signs with SYNETIQ BMW

Danny Buchan will join TAS Racing for a third consecutive season on the new M 1000 RR

The Essex rider has been a consistent podium challenger since his return to the class in 2018, scoring six wins and 15 further podiums.

Danny’s best season to date was the 2019 season where he finished fourth place in the standings. Last season was a tough one for all BMW riders with the bike only operating inside a small window, but by the end of the season the M 1000 RR package looked to be the strongest on track.

Despite being one of the most renowned teams and most successful teams in the paddock, TAS Racing are yet to put their hands on the British Superbike Title, coming close in 2012 with Josh Brookes.

If the two-time National Superstock 1000 champion and the SYNETIQ BMW can start the 2023 season the way they closed out 2022, they could be a favourite for the title.

If you look at the steps we made this season from the midway-point through to the end, it was positive progression. Wins at Cadwell Park yes, that was a superb weekend for everyone involved, but two podiums at Brands – which is possibly my weakest circuit on the calendar – just proves the strength and ongoing development of the TAS prepared M 1000 RR package. That’s a massive credit to the team.“Taking that all into consideration, it was a ‘no-brainer’ for me to stay for 2023 and while we always talk about bike development, there are a few things I need to improve myself, so the hard work has already begun. It’s inspiring to have also seen the launch of the new and improved M 1000 RR, so I can’t wait to hook up with the boys and get going

Phillip Neill
After two strong seasons together, whilst developing the SYNETIQ BMW M 1000 RR, we are really looking forward to a third year with Danny. We have shown we can win races together and the aim will be to build on that and challenge for the championship in 2023.”
