Danny Webb (born 22 March 1991 in Tunbridge Wells, Kent)[1] is a British motorcycle racer. He currently races in the British Supersport Championship for Appleyard Macadam aboard a Yamaha YZF-R6. He previously competed in the Supersport World Championship for PTR aboard a Honda CBR600RR.[1] Webb has competed in the class for the four seasons, starting out in 2007 where he failed to score points in all but one of the races.
In 2008 the season started off really well for Webb, claiming a career best fifth position in the third race of the season, however he could not keep this up and fell away towards the end of the season. 2009 was hampered by too many retirements and thus did not improve on his performances from the previous year. In 2010 Webb has been at his most consistent regularly breaking into the top 10 of the championship close to the end of the season. Webb joined Mahindra for 2011 and ended the season in 19th overall. The highlight of the season was a pole position in the final 125cc race, the first pole for Mahindra.
He stayed with Mahindra for 2012 but the season was a disaster due to an under powered motorcycle and failed to score any points. He started 2013 riding in the Moto3 World Championship riding for Ambrogio Racing aboard a Suter Honda but was released by the team mid season due to unsatisfactory results. He then signed for PTR Honda to contest the remaining four rounds of the Supersport World Championship.
He is currently being sponsored by National Pallets
