The event’s social media post stated that “We’re really pleased to announce the first rider to be signed up to the 2024 Hawkstone International is JM Honda Racing rider Brent van Doninck.
He had a great ride at Hawkstone in 2023 and we look forward to welcoming him back!”
Brent is one of those riders who will push to the maximum at the pre-season international to get the better of some star names who might have GP concerns in mind. He went 3-4 in the main motos but a great 2nd in the end-of-day SuperFinal saw him get the better of World Champions Romain Febvre and Jeffrey Herlings, as he left nothing on the table!
After a promising 2023 GP season was curtailed by injury, Brent will give his utmost and is absolute mustard in the Shropshire sands, certainly adding value for money at the February 25th event!
