Cadwell Park BSB.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Two-time National Superstock champion Buchan retired at the end of the 2024 BSB season and has since become a part of TNT Sports\u2019 presentation and commentary line-up for the past two years.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">But Buchan will be back on the BSB grid this weekend at Cadwell Park to replace the still-injured Andrew Irwin at the MET fonaCAB Ducati team.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Irwin has been out of action since round three at Knockhill and has been replaced by his brother, Graeme Irwin, until now, but it will be Buchan stepping in for the eighth round of the season on August bank holiday weekend.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>View this post on Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>A post shared by British Superbike Championship
