Lewis Tombs drafted into Buildbase Honda team

With Jake Nicholls missing the start of the motocross season through injury the Buildbase Honda team have decided to draft in Lewis Tombs.

After spending a number of years in the MX2 class it’s a good opportunity for Tombs to move up to the MX1 class. He will make his debut with the team at the first round of the MX Nationals series taking place this weekend. Tombs is expected to stay with the team until Nicholls makes his return from racing.

“All change last minute for 2019 – can’t thank Honda Racing MX enough for this opportunity and also massive thanks to Jake!! Thanks to all my sponsors that were already in place for being understanding and knowing I couldn’t turn this one down.. excited to give it my all!”, Tombs posted on social media.
