TOM BRENNAN admits he has to “take the jump” to progress his career away from the Cab Direct Championship.
The Great Britain star announced on Friday evening that he is quitting Poole and the second tier of the sport in the UK.
Brennan, 23, has delivered an incredible run of glory including three successive league titles at Belle Vue, Glasgow and Poole.
But as the Wessex Marine Pirates celebrated their treble success in Wimborne, the Swindon-born ace revealed he needs to move up a level.
He said: “Goodbye to the Championship for now. I’ve had a lot of questions regarding my plans for 2025 and I can now announce that I will be stepping away from Championship racing next season.
“I’ve had a lot of fun during my time in the Championship since 2021 and have learnt a lot in my time representing Eastbourne, Glasgow and Poole.
“However, there comes a time where I have to take the jump to try and do what I think will progress my career the most and unfortunately dropping Championship is a part of that.
“I couldn’t have wished for a better way to end my time in the Championship for now than completing the treble with Poole.
“I’ve made it no secret that my time with the club has been extremely enjoyable and a large part in teaching me a different way of racing and my improvement this year. Hopefully,
“I can wear the Pirate on my chest again some time soon and can’t thank Matt, Danny, Havvy, Middlo, the fans and everybody behind the scenes for my time with the club.”
