The FHO Racing team is to return to the North West 200 international road race in 2025 with riders Peter Hickman and Davey Todd.

The English riders will be aboard BMW machinery in the Superbike and Superstock classes at the event, which will be held over the Triangle circuit from 7-10 May.

Faye Ho's team withdrew from the 2023 North West meeting after being told that the carbon wheels on their BMW Superstocks did not conform to Motor Cycle Union of Ireland regulations.

The British Superbike outfit also sat out the 2024 staging of the race.

"Having missed the last two years, I am happy to say FHO Racing will be participating in the 2025 North West 200 with my two-rider line-up," said Faye, who will field the same two riders in next year's British Superbike Championship.

"I am very much looking forward to coming back and putting on a good show for everyone," she added.

North West 200 Race Director Mervyn Whyte agreed the deal to secure the FHO team's return during November's Macau Grand Prix.

"Both Davey and Peter are leading contenders on the roads and tracks and the FHO Racing BMWs have a well established pedigree of success so this is very exciting news for North West 200 fans," said Whyte.

Todd clinched a hat-trick of victories at last year's North West, two in the Superstock class and one in the Supersports, while Hickman was a double victor in the Supertwins on a machine prepared by his own PHR Racing outfit.

Yorkshireman Todd was also runner-up in all three Superbike races in 2024.
