Timeline

1972

Chris Walker (born 25 March 1972 in Nottingham) is a British motorcycle road racer and former scrambler with the nickname The Stalker.

He is a four-time runner-up in the British Superbike Championship, and a former race winner in the Superbike World Championship.

1995

Walker only started road racing in 1995 after many years as an accomplished motocross rider, but by the end of that year and into 1996 he rose through the ranks with ease and had ridden in Grands Prix and scored points.

1997

In 1997 he challenged for the prestigious British Superbike championship with Yamaha, finishing as runner-up to experienced team-mate Niall Mackenzie.

1998

He switched to Kawasaki for 1998, winning in the season's first race, before it became clear that the Yamahas of Mackenzie and Steve Hislop were the bikes to beat.

1999

Injury to Hislop allowed Walker to take 2nd in the series again, a feat he repeated behind Troy Bayliss’ Ducati in 1999.

2000

He came agonisingly close to the 2000 title, when an engine failure in his Suzuki took him out of a winning position with just three laps remaining of the final race at Donington Park, leaving Walker in tears and gifting the title to GSE Ducati’s Neil Hodgson.

He did however take a second place at Brands Hatch in the World Superbike round that year, the best of his many wild card entries in the UK rounds (and occasionally Assen in the Netherlands) over the years.

2001

Walker made an attempt at the 500 cc World Championship in 2001.

He predicted that "For me it's going to be the toughest year ever", which proved accurate, as the factory Shell-sponsored Honda was hard to ride and forced Walker to override, resulting in many huge crashes.

In, he moved to the Superbike World Championship, initially with the Fuchs Kawasaki team.

2002

Like Formula One legend Ayrton Senna, Walker developed Bell's Palsy in 2002 which paralysed part of his face.

He lists his determination as his best feature, and his love of puddings as his worst.

He usually races #9.

He returned to the grid in 2021 taking on the Ducati TriOptions Cup.

2006

Walker secured his maiden Superbike World Championship race win on 3 September 2006 in Race 1 at Assen, Netherlands in his 131st race.

2008

He was not retained for 2008, but raced in the Supersport World Championship for the very first time in and, for the GIL Kawasaki team alongside teammate Katsuaki Fujiwara.

However, the bike was not competitive, and he switched to the Paul Bird VK Vent-Axia team in World Superbikes for the final five rounds of the season.

He opened with minor points at Brands Hatch, but crashed twice at Donington Park.

2009

For 2009 he was optimistic of a top British Superbike Championship ride, as all the established good riders are gone.

He ultimately joined the Henderson Yamaha team, but struggled for much of the year.

He was competitive in race 1 at Mallory Park until chaos and controversy struck.

He was running second when Josh Brookes lost control of his bike and catapulted race leader Simon Andrews, dropping oil from Brookes' Honda.

Walker was one of five other riders who either crashed or downed their bikes to avoid crashing.

The red flag was shown, but these seven riders were excluded from the results, due to an unexpected application of the rules.

2011

Walker placed 6th in the championship for GSE Ducati in, and 11th for Carl Fogarty's Foggy Petronas team in , respectively teamed with James Toseland and Troy Corser (both of whom won the title the next season, Toseland riding the Fila Ducati to success and Corser the Alstare Suzuki in ).

In, he joined the PSG-1 Kawasaki Corse team, proving to be the most consistent Kawasaki rider in terms of pace and results, securing one podium finish (3rd place, round 6 at Valencia) and finishing 7th place overall.

saw Walker teamed up with Frenchman Régis Laconi and Spain's Fonsi Nieto on a Kawasaki Europe backed ZX-10R for PSG.

2013

Starting the race in 13th position, and dropping to 26th position at the first corner following an excursion onto the grass, Walker braved the torrential rain and a high rate of attrition to win in a time of 44 minutes, 23.501 seconds.

2015

For the 2015 season Walker signed for Tommy Hill's Be Wiser Kawasaki Team aboard a Kawasaki ZX-10R in the British Superbike Championship, following his 2014 season with Lloyds British GBmoto squad.

Team manager Hill left in August, 2015, and the team folded in September, leaving Walker without a ride for the final two race meetings of the season.

2016

In early 2016, Walker announced he would no longer participate in superbikes, instead switching to the British Sidecar Championship, initially with a two-year contract.

With no previous experience, Walker stated he was excited by the future opportunities.

2019

He came 9th overall in the championship, 19 points ahead of Nieto as the highest Kawasaki.

Despite his finishing position, Walker was subsequently dropped by PSG for the season, while Kawasaki still supported PSG as an official factory team.

Walker initially struggled on the Rizla Suzuki in the British Superbike championship, occasionally outpaced by rookie team-mate Cal Crutchlow.

When Neil Hodgson tested the bike some speculated that Walker's ride was under threat.

The team insisted it wasn't, and at Oulton Park he took third in race one, in tricky conditions which saw many top riders (such as Jonathan Rea, Gregorio Lavilla and Tom Sykes) crash out.

This was only his second podium of the season.

His points tally for the year was 225, comparing favourably to his team-mate's 152.
