McPhee to CIP as Dorna confirms British Talent, CEV plans

Dorna has confirmed that the British Talent grand prix team will not continue for a second season, with John McPhee instead being placed by Dorna at the CIP squad for 2018.

But next year's inaugural British Talent Cup will go ahead as planned, featuring a grid of 22 riders, with Dorna also supporting two rising stars in the CEV Moto3 Junior World Championship as part of its British Talent Program.

Tom Booth-Amos - recently crowned Motostar British Champion - will be racing for the Dorna-backed Talent Team, with Charlie Nesbitt set to continue competing in the same category after some solid points finishes this year.
