29-time TT winner to feature for Team LRP Poland in April
Michael Dunlop is set to make an appearance in this year's FIM Endurance World Championship.
The 29-time TT winner has been announced as one of the riders for Team LRP Poland which will contest the Superbike class of the event in 2025.
It's expected Dunlop will take part in the opening round of the championship - the 24 Heures Motos - on the Circuit Bugatti at Le Mans, France on Saturday, 19 April and Sunday, 20 April.
The Ballymoney man competed in the same event last year with French squad TRT27.
The second round of the championship on Saturday, 7 June will see Dunlop replaced by Szkopek with the Northern Irishman expected to be racing on the Snaefell Mountain Course during that time.
Announcing their plans for the year, Team LRP Poland team boss Bartłomiej Lewandowski says: "We are back in action with a new, fast and experienced team that we are very proud of, as well as with new partners.
"...Michael is an absolute legend on the Isle of Man racing and an extraordinary sportsman who wows everyone away with his determination.
"I'm sure we will use our joint experience and together we will have a very successful season this year."
Last year saw Dunlop become the most successful TT competitor of all time as he claimed four more wins to surpass the previous benchmark of 26 TT victories which had been set by Michael's uncle, Joey Dunlop.
Separately, Michael is yet to publicly announce his plans for this year's TT and North West 200.
