Junior Manx Grand Prix winner Andrea Majola joins Northern Ireland team Parker Transport Racing
Italian rider Andrea Majola has joined Northern Ireland’s Parker Transport team for the 2025 road racing season.
Majola, from La Spezia in the north of Italy, won the Junior Manx Grand Prix last year.
He will compete at selected Irish national road races, the North West 200 and Isle of Man TT on the team’s Yamaha R1 and R6 machines.
Majola is also set to ride a Paton Supertwin for VAS Racing.
Team owner Gerry Parker was impressed by Majola’s performance at the Manx Grand Prix last August and moved to sign the former European Hillclimb champion.
“We travelled to the Manx Grand Prix last year as spectators and we watched Andrea riding really well,” Parker said.
“Even with the weather against him, he went on to win and pull away from the rest of the field.
“We think he is a very fit and capable rider and we can’t wait to see him on our machinery.
“It’s going to be a good season and we hope for some good results.
“We’re super excited to work with Andrea this year.”
Aughnacloy’s Andrew Smyth will ride the Parker Transport R1 in the Ulster Superbike Championship this year and continue in the Supersport class on the 600cc Yamaha.
The opening round of the championship will take place with the Temple Club’s meeting at Bishopscourt Racing Circuit in Do Down on April 5.
