BSB: Ben Godfrey dies in Trackday Accident

Popular motorcycle racer Godfrey, 25, was riding at a No Limits trackday at Donington Park when he collided with another bike on the approach to Redgate during the second advanced group session.

Despite immediate medical assistance trackside, he tragically succumbed to the serious injuries suffered in the accident shortly after.

No Limits Trackdays director Mark Neate said:

“I am so desperately sad that Ben died from the injuries he sustained. Ben really was a fantastic young man and friends with so many people in the paddock, he was always smiling and had time for everyone. He was very excited for the start of the season and had taken part in many trackdays in the last month. Our thoughts are with his family, his partner Jordan and his team mates and friends.”

Godfrey was set to compete in the British Superbikes support series Ducati TriOptions Cup this year. Previously, the Nottingham rider was a regular in National Superstock 1000.

The entire Motorsport Radio team extend our deepest sympathies and are thinking of Ben’s family and friends.
