It also allows Warwick to get involved in something that he is passionate about – grass roots racing. Warwick understands how hard it is to survive in the racing world and is keen assist up and coming aussie riders in a mentoring role.
In Warwick’s own words - “2008 was a very hectic year for me. I split my time between racing and a number of projects that included managing a team in BSB and expert commentary for various media outlets. Unfortunately, my racing season ended early with a broken wrist in October. I had returned to Australia to prepare for the final race and had gained more strength than I had all year. Since then, I’ve healed and am getting back to my old self. The off season is exciting for me, I am not ready just yet for testing but I will be soon and when I am, I am only aiming to win, everything. This year will be solely focused on building my team to the best level possible, developing the new bike and winning the championship. I am very grateful to AXO Sport for their long running support. In this day and age it is very rare to see a rider and sponsor maintain such a long partnership and I look forward to continuing this relationship in future years. 2009 will be a big year for me both professionally and personally. I have great strength around me and exciting challenges ahead.”
