ABOUT DANNY
Danny Kent is best known for his Moto3 World Championship victory, celebrating in 2015 when he lifted the MotoGP support class crown. The feat meant that he became Great Britain’s first Grand Prix solo motorcycle world champion since Barry Sheene in 1977.
Kent began his career in Minimoto before progressing into the Superteen class before he was selected for the Red Bull MotoGP Academy, competing in the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup, where he finished runner-up in 2010.
Kent then continued his career in both the Moto2 and Moto3 World Championships the following seasons, before his championship victory in 2015, which saw him promoted to the Moto2 class.
He first made his debut in the Bennetts British Superbike Championship in 2018 at Brands Hatch, competing in a handful of races.

“I’m very pleased and honoured to be riding a Cheshire Mouldings’ Yamaha. Firstly, I would like to say a massive thank you to TAS Racing, Cheshire Mouldings and everyone involved for giving me this opportunity, and although it’s a new team for me, this will be my third year on a Yamaha. I will be working again with Chris Anderson (Spanner) as my crew chief – so the goal is to continue how we finished 2025, and that’s winning races.”
He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.
