Reigning Quattro Group British Supersport champions, Appleyard Macadam Yamaha, will turn its attention to the stars of the future for the 2021 season, signing Bradley Perie and Rhys Irwin in a bid to help the two young riders fulfil their already-promising potential.
Perie, from Kendal, Cumbria, and Irwin, from Donegal, Ireland, have both impressed on their privateer Yamaha YZF-R6 machines in the Supersport and Superstock classes respectively, providing an ideal grounding for them to ride with the official Yamaha Supersport race team.
Perie, who has just turned 21, had a standout season, chalking up six podiums on his way to fourth in the Supersport class. Having come so close to his first victory, the youngster is hungry to improve on his position in the standings next year. Eighteen-year-old Rhys Irwin moved up to the Superstock 600 series full-time, securing three hard-earned race wins and the overall runner-up position.
