Ben Young is the winner of the 2021 BMW Motorrad Race Trophy. Born in Scotland but now living in Canada, he scored more Race Trophy points in his races in the Canadian Superbike Championship (CSBK) than any other competitor. Young was rewarded for his success with a spectacular main prize, a new BMW M 1000 RR. Young received his new bike at BMW Motorrad Canada in Toronto (CAN).
The BMW Motorrad Race Trophy is back for 2021 – with a new scoring system and attractive prizes for the best privateer BMW riders in the world. The unique customer racing competition was launched in 2014 and enters its seventh season, after the pandemic-enforced break last year. As this year’s main prize, BMW Motorrad Motorsport will present the Race Trophy winner with a BMW M 1000 RR worth around 33,000 euros.
The global corona situation is also having an impact on the BMW Motorrad Race Trophy. There will be no overall ranking for the 2020 season for BMW Motorrad Motorsport’s customer racing competition. This is due to the postponement and cancellation of numerous races in the individual race series that are classified for the Race Trophy.
