Following a week of negotiations after being side-lined by DFX Honda due to the team’s financial difficulties, Steve Martin will be lining up on the World Superbike grid for the third round of the championship at Donington this coming weekend.

Steve spent much of last week on the phone and in meetings trying to find a solution to DFX’s financial problems, after two sponsors withdrew their support of the team at short notice.

Steve explained, “I have known Danielle Carli for the last six years so obviously it was with great regret that he had to inform me of the situation last week. But we’ve come to an agreement which will see me on track at Donington and from there, on a race by race basis for the next three races. If no sponsorship arrives during this time I will most likely be on the side lines again.
