Danny Kent seals up his first season with McAMS Yamaha Racing with a victory.
McAMS Racing and Danny Kent wrapped up the 2024 Bennetts British Superbike Championship in positive style, securing a duo of fourth-place finishes throughout Sunday’s track action to cap off a strong weekend with a further set of good results.
The opening race of Sunday, which was also the final 12-lap Sprint Race of 2024, saw the Tetbury rider start from Pole Position, following Saturday’s sensational performance to clinch a debut victory.
At lights out, Kent slipped down to fifth at just after half race distance. With an ambition to progress, the former Moto3 World Champion made his way back to fourth, holding position until the end to bring home 24 points for his season campaign.
Heading into the final race of the weekend, Kent sat eighth on the grid with focus remaining on moving forwards throughout the 20-lap charge.
A strong start saw the #52 rider enter sixth on the opening lap, progressing onwards to fourth before reaching the line by the end of Lap 20 and equalling his best result of the day.
For the McAMS-backed outfit and Kent, the 2024 season has been a year of strong form and challenges along the way. Having demonstrated sheer speed throughout the year and completing the entirety of the season with no technical-related issues, the family-run squad sit fourth in the overall standings.
