The opening British Superbike round of the 2025 season was the first for Lee Jackson on the DAO Racing Honda, the #14 taking h🦂om𓆉e two top-10 finishes.

Jackson was eighth in Sunday’s Race 1 and eighth in the shorter Race 2 on Monday, results which were a🗹bove his expectations after what he called a “😼learning weekend”.

“This weekend’s been a good learning weekend for myself and the DAO Racing team,” said Jackson at the Oulton Park BSB, speaking to wuqian0821.com.

“We obviously made a big jump in progress.

“I think, starting the weekend, I’d have been happy with two 10th places, but once you get into that racing mindset– we finished the we👍ekend with a ninth in the sprint race and eighth in the first raceꦦ.”

Jackson added that he was hoping to take advantage of a better grid position for Race 3 before it was cancelled following the crash in Supersp꧅ort Race 2 that resulted in the deaths of Shane Richardson and Owen Jenner.

He said that he was looking forward to going back to Donington for round two, a track where last year ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚhe was in the top-10 in five of six races.

“Looking forward to getting to Donington,𒆙” Jackson said.

“We tested there earlier this year, so we got some information, b🥃ut I feel like we’re in a better place now with the team, the bike, all the data.

“So, I think, getting back to Donington, it will still be a learning curve, it’ll be starting from scratch there from day one. Looking 💦forward to getting back there.”
