After a strong season in the British Motocross Championship, achieving several top-five finishes, Taylor Hammal will progress within the Team Green family, signing for the official SevenSeven2 Ride Kawasaki team. Alongside competing in the full 2027 British MX series, Taylor will also compete in five MXGP rounds throughout the year.
It has been an impressive 2026 season for Taylor, who has shown remarkable consistency aboard the Kawasaki KX450, achieving multiple top five finishes and currently sitting fourth in the Championship standings. To top off a fantastic season, the 26-year-old has also been selected to represent Team GB at the MX of Nations next month.
Joining the official Kawasaki UK team for next season and racing the upgraded 2027 KX450F, Hammal and the SevenSeven2 Ride Kawasaki partnership is sure to be a genuine title contender for the British Championship.
Taylor Hammal:
“I’m really excited to be joining the SevenSeven2 Ride Kawasaki team; it’s what I think is needed at this stage in my career. Getting to know all the team members, they seem like a great bunch of people and are really enthusiastic about the racing, which is nice to see. I really enjoy riding the Kawasaki; it suits my style, and I’m happy to stay with the brand and build the relationship. I’d like to thank everyone at Kawasaki UK and Europe for making this all come together and giving me a chance to have a good go at next year in the British championship and also the chance to do some Grand Prix racing.”
Co-team owners Craig Chamberlain and Chad Yarranton:
“We feel very proud to have signed Taylor and welcome him into our team for 2027, along with the support of everyone at Kawasaki UK and Europe. As well as our attack on the British Championship, we are also excited to expand our efforts by committing to race 5 rounds of the MXGP series. We look forward to working with Taylor and helping him reach his first podium finish and, hopefully, a race win on the new KX450F. We believe it’s only a matter of time!”
Steve Dixon:
“It’s been a busy season with the GPs, so for Taylor, joining SevenSeven2 is a strong fit as it allows him to concentrate on the British championship and selected MXGP rounds, which can only be good for the British fans. Personally, I think it’s great that Team Green have such a good structure of teams to allow riders to progress up the ladder on a Kawasaki.”
Ross Burridge, Head of Marketing & Racing Department at Kawasaki Motors UK:
“Taylor has been in amazing form this season, and I am really happy that he has decided to continue his relationship with Kawasaki for another season. Steve Dixon and his team have done a great job helping Taylor achieve some strong results this year, but I believe that with a dedicated British Championship team behind him in 2027, Taylor will be finding his way to that MX1 podium in no time!”
