FIM Sidecar World Championship 2020 season cancelled due to COVID-19 pressures
2020 season cancelled due to COVID-19 pressures
It is with heavy hearts and a deep sense of regret that in conjunction with the FIM, the decision has been taken to abort the planned five-round series for the current year.
Despite all our best efforts early in the year negotiating dates and facilitating an on-line entry system, the ever-changing situation between countries, and the various lock-down measures implemented as a result, destroyed any confidence teams and organisers had that travel would be possible, or even predictable.

WPS Racing Kawasaki teamsters join the Snetterton line-up
Against a backdrop of financial uncertainty which kept them out of the opening Cadwell Park round, the two outfits of Ricky Stevens and Ben Holland will line up on the grid at Snetterton.

Finally, the wait to re-join the BSB paddock is over for the Molson Group British Sidecar Championship. Round two takes us to one of the most popular and sidecar friendly tracks on the BSB tour.
The Snetterton 300 circuit has plenty of wide-open spaces to observe social distancing, and a super-fast race environment which always delivers great on-track action.
With a truncated five round, ten race season now fixed, there will be no room for error. The opener at Cadwell Park is already behind us, with scores firmly on the board for all the top runners.
Two weeks ago, in Lincolnshire, former champions Steve Kershaw, now with new passenger Ryan Charlwood (Santander Salt/Quattro Yamaha), took double victory ahead of his team-mates and reigning champions Todd Ellis and Charlie Richardson (Santander Salt Honda).

Timetable and results as they are posted in Mark’s Office here
Sunday timetable has been adjusted due to some races not having time to run yesterday. New timetable below…
Team Ricky & Jonny withdraw from 2020 season.
It is with a heavy heart that our team has taken the decision to withdraw from the 2020 season, due to unforeseen circumstances in the current environment.
As you are aware, this is a situation that has affected many teams across the world. Unfortunately, it has hit us very hard financially and we have no option other than to withdraw.
We would like to personally thank all of our sponsors and team members for all of your continued support.
It hurts me to write this, especially after the months and months of preparation that we have put in. Unfortunately this can not be helped…nobody anticipated what was going to happen this year!
To all of the teams that can make the grid this year, stay safe and we wish you all a successful season.
Hope to see you all in 2021
