Malachi Mitchell-Thomas [News] 30th November 2015
Malachi Mitchell-Thomas will ride for Burrows Engineering Racing at next year's TT
Senior Manx Grand Prix winner Malachi Mitchell-Thomas will ride for Burrows Engineering Racing at next year’s TT.
Burrows Engineering Racing manager John Burrows spoke about his plans for next year: ‘I spoke to a number of well established riders as well as Malachi about joining the team. After much thought, I decided to offer Malachi the full-time ride as I believe he is a truly outstanding prospect and deserves a chance with a professional team and competitive machinery. I think he is the man to keep Burrows Engineering Racing at the forefront of road racing.
‘Malachi will ride for us in the big three International road races, the Southern 100 and selected Irish national meetings, kicking off his campaign at Kirkistown on Easter Monday.
‘He will have Supertwin, 600 and 1000cc machinery at his disposal next year as well as a 125GP machine which will allow him to get some extra track time at the circuits he is not familiar with.
‘Malachi may be relatively inexperienced but Jamie Hamilton and I will be on hand to help him learn all the new circuits so I’m confident he will quickly be on the pace at the various venues.’
Jamie will be involved with the team full-time this year as his recovery from injuries suffered during a crash in this year’s Senior TT.
‘Burrows Engineering Racing will have a second Superbike rider for the NW200, TT and selected Irish meetings.
‘The name of that rider will be revealed in due course along with a full list of our sponsors and supporters. Cookstown will be our title sponsor again in 2016, it will be great for my successful long-term relationship with the famous pork producers to continue!’
