Former BSB Champion Tarran Mackenzie will be riding in the 2023 World Supersport Championship with MIE Honda.

Tarran Mackenzie is making the move to the World Supersport Championship for the 2023 season, riding for The MIE Honda Racing Team. This will be the Ashby-de-la-Zouch rider’s first time in the WSSP paddock, he did take part in the WSBK championship earlier this year for a one round wildcard.

Throughout his BSB career Taz has won 16 races and won one BSB championship title. Before moving up to the Superbike class Taz won the British Supersport championship title back in 2016, the 27-year-old won the first six races of the British Supersport championship in 2017 before he had the opportunity to compete in the Moto2 championship.

I’m really excited to join the MIE MS Racing Honda Team! It has been a big goal of mine to return to World Championship level and I think that competing in World Supersport is the perfect way to learn and move forward. I just want to say a big thank you to Midori and the whole team for giving me this opportunity. I can’t wait to begin!

Midori Moriwaki – MIE Honda Team Principal
Just do it. This has been a motto of mine ever since I started my racing activities and this is why I’m very happy and proud to announce that MIE Racing will debut in WorldSSP in 2023 with two riders of the calibre of Tarran Mackenzie and Adam Norrodin, and with the Honda family of course, competing with CBR600RR machines. Forming a partnership with the MS Racing Team means that we can start racing already next season. I’m sure that our combined strength and expertise will be instrumental in what will be an ongoing project, which will include an initial phase of development work that only the challenges posed by high-level racing can help with. We warmly welcome Tarran and Adam to the MIE and Honda family and we look forward to getting started!
