Australian Mark Wilkinson will ride British National Superstock 600 Championship in 2013, confirmed today by team owner Phil Seton.

Wilkinson has re-signed to contest the National Superstock Championship for a second season onboard the Seton Tuning Yamaha YZF-R6.

He made his debut on the British racing scene last time out, and after a strong learning year getting to grips with new circuits at almost every round, closed the season out in a highly commendable 20th position.

“I am really excited for 2013 with the Seton Tuning team,” Wilkinson said. “We developed a lot together as a team and I am thankful to Phil for putting his faith in me again next season.”

Phil Seton, team Principal, welcomed Mark back into the team alongside Graeme Gowland.

“Excited doesn’t even begin to explain how I’m feeling about the prospect of next season,” Seton said. “With both Graeme and Mark confirmed on our bikes, we’re expecting a plethora of fantastic results throughout the season.”

The 2013 MCE British Superbike Championship kicks off at Brands Hatch Indy circuit, Kent over the weekend of 5-7 April.
