The WFR triumvirate at the workshop late last week

WFR Honda's two existing riders James Westmoreland and Graeme Gowland will continue with the squad in 2012 for their three-pronged attack on British Superbikes in 2012 alongside shock signing Alex Lowes.

Gowland started this season with the team and Westmoreland was drafted in when Lowes originally left under a cloud in the middle of the year. Gowland ended runner-up in the Evo championship while Westmoreland began developing the 2012 bike.

“In the three rounds that I did with the team last year I felt really comfortable with the team and people I was working with so I’m glad the job I did then has helped us move into the new year and that I am going to be a part of that," said Westy.

“It’s important to have a good teammate to test yourself against and I’ve got two in Graeme and Alex so hopefully we can all push each other along. Obviously everyone is on a level playing field next year so we have as good a chance as anyone else to win the championship and that’s the aim.”

Gowland added: "Obviously it’s really good to be back with the team that I was so successful with last year. We have already done some testing out in Spain with the new spec engine and some new parts which went really well. I was setting some good times so hopefully I can pick up right where I left off last year and win some races in British Superbikes.”
