Redding ready to put on a show as the Showdown kicks off at TT Circuit Assen

15 September 2026

Scott Redding is ready to fight back in the hunt for the 2026 British Superbike Championship at the TT Circuit Assen this weekend (September 18/19/20) as the Hager PBM Racing Team rider bids to replicate his winning performance from last season.

Redding claimed a double win in 2025 and also in his 2019 title-winning season and arrives into the opening Showdown round this weekend determined to close the deficit to Kyle Ryde at the top of the standings.

Redding said: “I am really looking forward to Assen – the Cathedral of Speed, one of the most iconic circuits in the world with so much history. I love racing in Assen, the fans are always mega and the track is super cool and suits my style and over the years I have had great results there. In previous years and different championships, in MotoGP and also in Moto2, WSBK was pretty good too.

“Now we are in the Showdown I am hoping to get some more stronger results, obviously Cadwell was not what I expected; I got one fourth position but that wasn’t really a true result as there were so many crashes. I struggled a bit there, but moving on to Assen we have put the last weekend behind us and we are ready to put on a show.”
