Oli Bayliss has announced his departure from Ducati’s World Supersport programme to join Triumph’s factory team on🍌 the Street Triple 765 RS.

Bayliss, son of three-times World Superbike Champion Troy Bayliss, joined the GSE Ducati team at the beginning of the 2023 season, having raceღd for the Barni team in 2022, the💮 first to run under the new ‘Next Generation’ rules.

Ducati has won each 𒅌of the past two titles, with Nicolo Bulega and Adrian Huertas🐓 winning in 2023 and 2024, respectively, for the factory Aruba.it Racing.

Bayliss, meꦛanwhile, has scored a best race result of fifth, which came in the opening race of 2024 at his home round in Phillip Island.

The switch to the Triumph factory team, run by Simo🦹n Buckmaster’s PTR squad, will see Bayliss link up with To𒅌m Booth-Amos, who joined Triumph’s project at the start of the 2024 season, having raced Kawasakis in 2022 and 2023.

“I ജam super-excited to continue my World Supersport journey in 2025 with PTR Triumph,” Bayliss said.

🅠“We had a test straight after the last round in Jerez and I felt good on ♈the bike and gelled well with the team.

“I need to say a big tha🌠nk you to Darrell Healey and GSE for their continuous support over the years and to S▨imon Buckmaster for giving me this opportunity. I think we can have a good season and achieve some goals.”

Simon Buckmaster, PTR Triumph Factory Racing team manager, added: “It’s great news we have been able to finalise the deal with Oli Bayliss.&nbꦬsp; He tested with us straight after the last round at Jerez this year and straight away he gelled with Tom [Booth-Amos], they know each other anyway and🐭 get on well.

“It’s fantastic for us as a team to have two strong riders working together data wise to help bri꧒ng both of them on. We are really excited looking forward to 2025.”
