Neil Hodgson has today announced his retirement from racing.

The former World Superbike and British Superbike champion has been forced to quit the sport after aggravating the shoulder injury he sustained last year.

Hodgson required extensive surgery to rebuild his left shoulder after last year’s motocross crash and then clouted the shoulder after a huge highside during practice on the Motorpoint Yamaha for the first BSB round of the year at Brands Hatch on April 5.

Since then he’s undergone extensive physio but after a consultation with top specialist in Manchester yesterday, Hodgson has been forced to accept that his racing days are over.
