By 2025 Historic Junior Classic TT winner Paul Jordan association with Jackson Racing, remains in earnest for this year’s TT Races.
Back astride RS660 Aprilia, CBR 1000RR Fireblade Honda tackle, the Northwest 200 winner moves to Ducati’s formidable V2 Panigale model for Supersport encounters.
Chipping away in testing with Ducati’s flagship middleweight category steed, the Armoy Super Twins lap-record holder described recently, re-signing for the Preston located Jackson Racing outfit, as a no brainer.
“With the exception of the Supersport class, everything’s the same with the Jackson Racing team this year and continuing with them for a third successive year was a no-brainer.
I’ve had my best results with them so I’m looking forward to getting going for another year. The aim is to build on a strong 2025 season and I’m hoping we can move up the ladder that bit more.”
Presently, the thirty fifth quickest racer in TT Races history, he went onto add:
“The switch to the Ducati is something that I believe will stand us in good stead and I’ve already had a couple of outings on the bike so continuing with the same team, same crew and same bikes gives us a solid foundation in terms of preparation and confidence.
I am looking forward to getting back to the Island and getting the racing underway.”
Jackson Racing, Team Owner, 2004, 2005 Senior Manx Grand Prix podium finisher, Alan Jackson, added:
“It’ll be our third year together with Paul and that speaks volumes of how we see his talent and potential and having already enjoyed some good success together, none more so than last year’s Super twin TT podium, we’re hoping to keep building and keep progressing in 2026 with the continuity helping us improve on last year.
We’re sticking with the Honda and Aprilia whilst the Ducati V2 Panigale will be the same as Michael Dunlop’s, and it is all with the aim of giving Paul the tools to do the job.
We are also continuing with Prosper2 for the third year, and we simply want Paul to go out there and enjoy himself and if he does that, the results will come.”
