In 2024, Davies was confirmed as a rider in the MotoE World Championship, an electrically powered race series.[https://bikesportnews.com/motogp/chaz-davies-confirms-return-to-racing-with-aruba-it-racing-motoe-deal-for-2024/ Chaz Davies confirms return to racing with Aruba.it Racing MotoE deal for 2024] bikesportnews.com, 7 February 2024.

Career

=Early career=

Davies started racing in the British Mini Moto championship in 1995, moving up to Junior Road racing in 1999. In the same season he was given special dispensation at the age of 12 to take part in the Aprilia Challenge 125cc Championship. Davies finished 6th overall, and was the only rider to finish every race in a points scoring position. He set a new lap record at Donington Park National circuit, and was awarded 'Superteen of the Year'. He stayed with the series for a second year, and was runner up in the championship.

In 2001 Davies moved to the British 125 Championship, placing seventh after completing 8 of 13 rounds. Davies was the youngest winner of a British Championship race in July at Thruxton at the age of 14 years 5 months. Davies also contested all rounds of the Spanish National 125 Championship with the Telefonica Movistar team under the management of Alberto Puig. He was nominated for BBC "Young Sports Personality of the Year."

In 2002 management company Dorna Sports placed Chaz with Team Matteoni Racing to compete in the 125cc Grand Prix World Championship riding a kit Aprilia. Davies became the youngest rider to compete in a full season of GP Motorcycle racing.

From 2003, Davies rode for Aprilia Germany on the back of the consistent performance in his 125cc 'Rookie' season. In 2003 he became the youngest rider to score World Championship points in the 250cc class finishing 15th place in the Gauloises Africa's Grand Prix. For the 2004 season, still the youngest rider by two years, Davies finished 13th in the 250cc World Championship Classification out of the 36 regular starters scoring three top 10 results in the final three races of the season. Davies finished 2004 with a series of outstanding results on what was a customer kit level of bike, far inferior to those of the factory teams. He finished 9th in Malaysia, 6th in Australia and then backed it up with 5th at the final race in Valencia.

Davies again signed for Aprilia Germany for 2005 in hope that Aprilia would provide him with factory material after his strong end to 2004. With two Top 10 results in Italy and Turkey, Davies again proved himself a consistent front runner within the non-factory machines but again failed to secure any type of factory backing. He finished the championship in 16th.

For the 2006 season, he was promised a semi-works Aprilia bike by the Campetella team, but this did not materialise after the team ran into serious sponsorship difficulties and Davies was forced to ride a series of privateer options. After Campetella replaced Davies for the Mugello round with a sponsored rider Franco Battaini due to financial difficulties, Davies secured a semi-works Honda ride for another team the 2006 British GP at Donington Park. He then rode a 600 cc Yamaha in the AMA Championship at Mid-Ohio; then finished out the season with a 250 cc ride at the closing Grand Prix of the year at Cheste, near Valencia.

In 2007 he made his MotoGP debut, at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca for Pramac d'Antin Ducati, riding a Desmosedici GP7 in replacement for the injured Alex Hofmann, who crashed in first practice.[http://www.trymysport.co.uk/sports_news/dantin_racing_news/2007/jul07/hofmann_injury_update.htm FIVE WEEK RECOVERY TIME FOR ALEX HOFMANN AFTER PRACTICE CRASH] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070928083309/http://www.trymysport.co.uk/sports_news/dantin_racing_news/2007/jul07/hofmann_injury_update.htm |date=28 September 2007 }} retrieved from trymysport.co.uk Already there for the supporting AMA round, Davies took over on an unfamiliar bike and track.{{Cite web |url=http://www.crash.net/news_view~cid~6~id~151556.htm |title=MOTOGP: Davies gets d'Antin call-up!, motorsport news, results, features, teams, drivers, updates |access-date=21 July 2007 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070822235243/http://www.crash.net/news_view~cid~6~id~151556.htm |archive-date=22 August 2007 |url-status=dead }} Despite setting solid laptimes, he was overlooked for the following event at Brno, with Iván Silva replacing Hofmann.[http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2007/Aug/e/n070809b.htm Soup:: Davies Won't Race At Brno:: 08-09-2007] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930185811/http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2007/Aug/e/n070809b.htm |date=30 September 2007 }}

Davies was offered a full-time testing role with Ducati for 2008, but he turned it down in favour of a return to AMA.[http://www.crash.net/motorsport/motogp/news/157351-0/chaz_returns_to_the_ama.html Chaz returns to the AMA]

Davies made a switch to World Supersport late in the 2009 season for Triumph, remaining with them for 2010.{{cite news|url=http://www.crash.net/world+superbikes/news/155790/1/wss_chaz_davies_secures_full-time_triumph_seat.html|title=Chaz Davies secures full-time Triumph seat|work=crash.net|publisher=Crash Media Group|date=7 January 2010|access-date=3 October 2010}} He was consistently their fastest rider, scoring podium finishes at Valencia, Kyalami and Brno. After his Brno success, team manager Guiliano Rovelli commented "He is a tough bloke who always gives 110% and is now the best rider in Supersport". He came agonisingly close to a first class win at Imola – suffering a fuel pump failure while running third, just as leaders Kenan Sofuoglu and Eugene Laverty collided.{{cite news|url=http://www.crash.net/world+superbikes/news/163737/1/wss_fuel_pump_denies_davies_triumph_first_win.html|title=Fuel pump denies Davies, Triumph first win|work=crash.net|publisher=Crash Media Group|date=29 September 2010|access-date=3 October 2010}}
