GSE Racing dresses for success in 2001.

GSE Racing's WSBK campaigners, Neil Hodgson and James Toseland, will both be wearing Suomy helmets and sporting completely new helmet designs and graphics next season.

As part of a two-year contract that aligns GSE Racing to the Ducati factory helmet provider, Suomy will release Neil Hodgson and James Toseland replica helmets to the world market, ensuring that they will also be available to purchasers in the UK next spring through Frank Thomas outlets, as the team embarks on its first full WSBK campaign with two home-grown talents.

GSE Racing is also delighted to announce that a new leathers, boots and gloves contract has been secured for both riders with Axo Sport, one of Neil Hodgson's sponsors from this year's outstanding British championship season. Axo Sport will be providing the latest hi-tech leather suits and protective race wear to the riders as well as shoes and kit bags for all GSE Racing team personnel.

"It's so important for me to know that I have the utmost protection while on the track and to be able to combine that with the most fashionable designs and comfort is fantastic," commented the current British Superbike champion Hodgson.

GSE's commitment to achieving the highest standards of performance and presentation has also brought about their control over the team riders' clothing contracts, as team manager Colin Wright confirmed.

"It is better for us and our sponsors to have both riders in identical products," explained, "Consequently, we're delighted to have the opportunity to work with companies of the calibre of Axo and Suomy."
