Double gold medal winner and Speedo ambassador Rebecca Adlington is leading the 35-strong British swimming team to the European Championships in Budapest from 9-15 August.

Rebecca Adlington will also be joined at the event by backstroke World Champion and fellow Speedo ambassador Liam Tancock. Both swimmers will be wearing the Speedo LZR Racer ELITE suit to compete in and all at Speedo wish them luck in their pursuit of European gold.

Fully compliant with the FINA 2010 regulations and inspired by the record breaking Speedo LZR Racer suit launched in 2008, the Speedo LZR Racer ELITE suit incorporates the same fully bonded construction with ultrasonically welded seams for the ultimate smooth, flexible and streamlined surface. Made from exclusive ultra-lightweight, low drag LZR Pulse fabric, the suit is engineered to fit the swimmer’s body for a streamlined shape while reducing muscle oscillation, enabling them to cut through the water more efficiently. Also featuring Speedo’s unique 3D, 3-piece dynamically engineered pattern for optimum fit and shape, the Speedo LZR Racer ELITE range is Speedo’s most advanced performance racing suit.


Speedo supports all swimmers within the sport and the collections cater from grass roots through to the elite level from waterpolo through to diving. Speedo are official partners of the British Gas British Swimming team and wish all athletes heading to the European Championships the very best of luck.
