Ex BSB champ, Shane ‘Shakey' Byrne, is the fans favourite and all round good guy, looking to regain the crown for pride's sake. Michael Laverty, the Irish Flyer wants to put his stamp on the title for his country, whilst for the first time in the UK, ex Moto GP star John Hopper Hopkins, back to racing after overcoming his personal demons and substance abuse problems.

With the live Q&A hosted by ex-champ and TV commentator James Whitham, featuring Stuart Higgs British Superbikes series director, showdown riders Shane Byrne, Michael Laverty and reigning British Champion Tommy Hill alongside film director, Mark Sloper.
