Danny Kent sets 2025 BSB expectations: “We want to fight for the championship”
McAMS Racing Yamaha’s Danny Kent is targeting the 2025 BSB title 💦after his strong finish to 2024.

Having won Race 1 at the final round of the 2024 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:British Superbike Championship at Brands Hatch, Danny Kent comes into this season with increased expectations and an ꧒adjusted mindset for 2025.
The 31-year-old has been the only Yamaha rider in BSB to have a smooth winter, given the late disruptions to the off-seasons of Kyleꩲ Ryde and Bradley Ray who were directly affected by th🤪e issues for OMG Racing, but the goals for the 2025 season were already raised last October.
“Before going into last year and I didn’t c⛦ount myself as an every week front runner, whereas [in the 2024 season] I proved that [I am],” Kent told 🍸wuqian0821.com between the penultimate and final sessions at the Donington test.
“We finished fourth in the championship last year, and it’s only natural that we want to impr🍸ove. So, we want more wins and we want to fight for the championship.”
The #52 had two bikes to try in Donington, which he said had “completely differeඣnt”🦹 chassis settings and geometry.
“We’re running two bikes here to try to get throꦰugh our test plan a bit quicker,” Kent s🍷aid.
“The geometry and the chassis settings on the two bik🥃es are completely different, so we’re just trying to ܫfind the direction that we want to go in for 2025.
“I feel like we know what direction we want t✅o go [in], and now we’re just spending time trying to understand the new tyre that we’ve got for 2025 a𝔉s well.
“The feeling with the team is reall✤y good, the feeling with the bike is getting better, so I’m feeling confident.”
Kent ended the test fourth-fastestꦡ overall on the combined times, 0.512 seconds adrift of Glenn Irwin’s lap record set in the t🃏hird and final session of day two.
The McAMS Racing Yamaha rider said that he was strong in the flowing parts of the Donington layout, but was los🍸ing out in the final sector.
“I wouldn’t say I need to improv💎e anything on the bike, it’s more myseꦛlf,” he said.
“Secto🌃rs [one-to-four] I’m just as fa🌊st if not faster, but then I lose half-a-second in sector five which is a 22-second sector, which is really bad.
“But in that last session [the second session of day two] I managed to improve 💃it. It’s something that I need to ch🌼ange in my riding style.”
He added: “One of the easiest𝕴 sectors seems to be the one I’m losing the most [in], but looking at the data I know where I need to improve.”
