Making a serious statement of intent ahead of the 2027 motocross season, the FUS Marsh Racing team are absolutely delighted to announce the truly marquee signing of Dan Thornhill. And what a very impressive pedigree the talented Gloucestershire-based rider brings to the team!

Dan’s list of racing honours includes being the British MXY2 Champion, Redbull Elite Youth Champion and the Bridgestone British Masters Pro MX1 Champion, as well as scoring MXGP points and finishing top five in the EMX Open class. Following a 6th overall in the Motul MX1 British Championship, the current season has been hampered by injury, but Dan is now right back on it and ready to tackle a Winter of French Beach racing.
Talking of that sand surfing, well, Dan’s certainly made a name for himself in that also, scoring two Weston podiums and winning the Skegness Beach Race no less than three times! Having represented the Cabscreens team for seven years and, more recently, Chambers Racing in the last four years, both of whom he would like to sincerely thank for their fantastic support, 2027 will see a brand new chapter in Dan’s racing career.
In 2027, for the FUS team and Dan, the main focus will be the AMCA British Motocross Championship, the Nora92 British Cup and selected other events, including rounds of the ACU Motul British Motocross Championship.
