RELENTLESS SUZUKI BY TAS RACING CONFIRM THAT CAMERON DONALD WILL AGAIN COMPETE FOR THE TEAM AT THE 2011 TT RACES
Relentless Suzuki by TAS Racing have confirmed that popular Australian rider Cameron Donald will partner new signing Guy Martin at the 2011 TT Races Fuelled by Monster Energy, completing the Moneymore based team’s road racing line-up.
Donald will remain in the TAS Racing set-up for a third successive season, and the double TT winner is very much looking forward to renewing his connection with the team, on a full stable of GSX-R machinery.
The Melbourne rider first competed at the TT Races in 2005 and was runner up to John McGuinness in the 2006 Senior TT. Injury forced him to miss the 2007 meeting but he came back successfully in 2008, winning both the Superstock and Superbike Races, and finishing runner-up in the Senior TT. An accident in qualifying, having posted an unofficial lap record, prevented him from adding to his wins in 2009 but was back on the podium in the 2010 PokerStars Superbike Race and will start as one of the favourites in 2011, the centenary of racing on the world famous Mountain Course.

Commenting on the deal, Cameron Donald said:
“What can I say apart from, I couldn’t be happier to be racing for Relentless Suzuki by TAS Racing again in 2011. My goal, as always, is to win International Road Races and I know better than anyone I need to come out fighting in 2011. In saying that, I couldn’t have a better team in my corner for the job ahead and the only way I can thank Philip and Hector’s loyalty is by winning races next season. “
Philip Neill, Relentless Suzuki by TAS Racing’s team manager commented:
“After a lot of rumours on who we might sign for 2011, I think it's very good news that Cameron is back on-board for 2011. It has been well documented that this season has not been his best in Relentless Suzuki colours, but having fought back from a bigger injury than some people imagined in 2009, a TT Superbike podium was no mean achievement.”
He continued:
"He knows what it takes to win on the Isle of Man and with a 131mph lap also under his belt, we believe Cameron will be back to his very best on GSX-R machinery in 2011. We never enjoy having to let anyone go from our set-up, so we’re delighted to welcome him back into the fold alongside new signing Guy Martin. I'm sure both boys will be a credit to our sponsors and fans.”

I heard it mention a few months ago that Bruce may even retire. He had a fantastic Ulster and I guess if he wanted to retire on a 'high' there would be no better time. He has been a brilliant competitor.

Hi Jan...I heard this as well.
He has been a great "TT Rider" and I agree it may be a good time to retire.....
But we'll miss him if he ceases to appear, he was such a character !
Therefore, let us know his decision soon please
