More than £22,000 raised for Two Wheels For Life during WorldSBK’s Donington Park visit

Luke was one of many riders helping out the renowned Two Wheels For Life charity at Donington.

With the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship visiting Donington Park a couple of weeks ago, the British venue not only hosted thrilling on-track action but a massive fundraiser for the Two Wheels For Life charity via auctions and concerts. In total, more than £22,000 (approx. €26,000) was raised by people bidding for special memorabilia and witnessing ‘WorldSBK’s Got Talent’ as personnel from the paddock entertained the onlooking crowd.

The auction allowed fans to bid on items that would not normally be available. The top item was a fairing from the Kawasaki Puccetti Racing outfit, which sold for £2,050. Next up was a Team#109 Retro Traffic Kawasaki VIP experience in 2025, which went for £2,000. An experience with KRT received a highest bid of £1,800 while, sticking with KRT, £1,200 was spent on Alex Lowes’ (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK) leathers. Boots from Alvaro Bautista (Aruba.it Racing – Ducati) sold for £1,000, while many other items raised a huge amount of money.

Not only did the auction raise a substantial amount for charity, but so did the concert featuring riders, team managers and more perform in front of the fans. This year, people could vote for their favourite with Mario Salles – from the FIM Yamaha R3 bLU cRU World Cup – claiming the win with his rendition of ‘Perfect’ by Ed Sheeran ahead of Mallory Dobbs (Sekhmet Motorcycle Racing Team) from WorldWCR, who performed ‘That Don’t Impress Me Much’ by Shania Twain and Luke Power (Motozoo ME AIR Racing) from WorldSSP, who wowed the crowds with his interpretation of the Fast Food Song.

Aside from the top three, the WorldSBK Super Troupers performed with special guest Toprak Razgatlioglu (ROKiT BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team) joining in on the action to end the show, while Bautista, Adrian Huertas (Aruba.it Racing WorldSSP Team) and Beatriz Neila (Ampito / Pata Prometeon Yamaha) teamed up, as did Yamaha Thailand Racing Team duo Anupab Sarmoon and Krittapat Keankum. Piotr Biesiekirski (Ecosantagata Althea Racing Team) also performed in the show.
