Ian Lowry will ride Superbikes for the Relentless TAS Suzuki team

Ian Lowry has been unveiled as part of the Relentless TAS Suzuki team for the British Superbike series.

The 22-year-old from Lisburn will join Japan's Atsushi Watanabe in the Northern Ireland-based team's campaign.

Omagh rider BJ Toal will compete for the team in the British Supersport class and Cameron Donald in Superstock.

"I am delighted to be staying with Relentless TAS Suzuki, and to get a crack at the British Superbike class," said Lowry.

"I watched BSB on TV as a kid and to be racing in it next year is unbelievable. I believe I can deliver."

Philip Neill, team principal, said Lowry would undergo an extensive training and testing programme.

"We want to give Ian the best opportunity to succeed at the highest level of British championship racing," said Neill.

"After three successful supersport campaigns for Relentless Suzuki, I believe Ian has a bright future in the superbike class."
