Kent signs for Yamaha: Danny Kent targets BSB podiums and wins with Mar-Train Yamaha in 2024

Danny Kent will don the blue of Yamaha for his 2024 Bennetts British Superbike Championship campaign after signing for Mar-Train Yamaha.

The 2015 Moto3 world champion replaces Jack Kennedy at Tim Martin’s team, which will receive support from Yamaha UK.

Kent launched his own Honda team this season, but the project unfortunately came to a premature end prior to Cadwell Park due to financial problems.

Despite being a new, privateer team, Kent was competitive onboard the Fireblade, taking two podiums, six top six results and 12 top 10s. He was as high as 10th in the standings at one stage.
