ParkinGO Triumph BE1 Racing and Chaz Davies have signed an agreement that will see the talented young Brit take part in the last three races of the Supersport World Championship at Imola, Magny-Cours and Portimao.
Despite his 22 years of age Chaz has already been racing at world level and is a promising prospect for ParkinGO Triumph BE1 Racing. Chaz has just completed the AMA Sportbike Championship with the official Aprilia Team during which he managed to obtain several podiums.
Today at a rainy Mugello saw the start of a new adventure for Chaz when he tried out the BE1-prepared Triumph Daytona 675 which he was very impressed with.
"I would like to thank Giuliano (Rovelli) and the team for this opportunity," declared Chaz at Mugello. "This is my first chance to ride in the WSS Championship and I am excited to experience it and give it my best shot. I've watched ParkinGO Triumph BE1 Racing Team's results progress and I think that between the team and myself we can aim for strong results on the three cylinder Triumph".
Team manager Giuliano Rovelli added: "Last year we came really close to signing a deal with Chaz Davies. Today I am proud to have a British rider of his stature in the seat of the Triumph Daytona 675. Despite his youth he is a very experienced rider and I feel certain that he will fully express the potential of our bike, an equal match for Garry McCoy".
