Tommy Bridewell

Thomas George Bridewell (born 8 August 1988 in Etchilhampton, Wiltshire) races for Honda Racing UK in the British Superbike Championship.

Bridewell is a Superbike Champion in the 2023 British Superbike Championship aboard a Ducati Panigale V4 R. After several seasons with Oxford Products in the British Superbike Championship, for 2023 he switched to Paul Bird Racing on a factory-supported Ducati.

During the 2018 season, while competing on a Suzuki GSX-R1000R, his contract was terminated abruptly by his team during practice for the Snetterton Circuit round in June. However, in July, after missing two rounds, Bridewell was able to step into the vacant Ducati Panigale seat at Moto Rapido Racing, caused by Taylor Mackenzie leaving earlier by mutual agreement.

For the remainder of 2018 Bridewell returned the team's best results in the Superbike class, scoring four podium finishes, narrowly missing out on a Showdown place and achieving the Riders' Cup at the season finale. Bridewell was retained from 2019 to 2022 with the same team under a new sponsor name.

Prior to winning the 2023 British Superbike Championship, his best season-result was finishing second in the 2021 BSB series, behind winner Tarran Mackenzie.

Earlier in his racing career he had also been a runner-up in the Yamaha R6 Cup of 2005.

Tommy is the younger brother of Ollie Bridewell, who was a prominent up-and-coming motorcycle racer when he died in 2007 during the Mallory Park round of the Superbike Championship.
