Irwin aims to be first BSB winner from Northern Irelandpublished at 21:12 30 October
Glenn Irwin says his future in the British Superbike Championship is bright as he chases a maiden title.
The 34-year-old from Carrickfergus will now focus on the series after announcing his retirement from road racing on Sunday.
Irwin was pipped to the title by Tommy Bridedwell in 2023 and finished third in the standings this year.
"The next two years in BSB are as healthy as what they have ever been," said Irwin.
"My goal is to be Northern Ireland's first Superbike champion. When I do I'll have completed everything I want to do in bike racing and then it will be about adding to that."
Irwin raced for the PBM Ducati team in 2024 but has yet to officially announce who he he riding for next year.
"I love PBM - we've had 18 Superbike wins in the last two years, five Superbike win at he North West 200 and all the other success.
"I want to continue - things look pretty good but there's a few things to get over the line. There's always interest from other teams and I'm sure everyone is after a ride with PBM."
