Trackside Chat with BSB Racer Tommy Bridewell

Visordown grabbed a few minutes with Oxford Racing Ducati rider Tommy Bridewell, as we attended a Ducati track day at Donington Park Race Circuit.

The discussion began with questions about Tommy’s incredible ride for World Superbike squad Team Goeleven, as Bridewell was called up to replace Eugene Laverty after he had a huge crash at Imola during FP1.

Despite missing FP2, FP3 and literally hoping straight on the bike for Superpole qualification, Tommy managed to finish in 12th position for race one, and was looking to score an even stronger position in race two, before poor weather forced cancellation of the race.

Here are Tommy’s thoughts + a few tips on how to improve your track day riding.
