Suzuki WSBK

Anyone know what is happening with Suzuki in World Superbikes next year, i thought they were meant to make an anouncement at Imola.

I also heard that Chili was acked by Suzuki on the Tuesday before imola, but that was proved wrong as he raced on the Sunday, and that Chambon is going back to Supersports to partner Muggeridge and Fujiwara has been sacked, and also that Fancis Batta's Corona Extra team may run a pair of Apprillia's next season.

So what is happenening, hopefully they won't pull out, as 750's have been given 5kg off next year, so they will be more competitive.

Well I have heard Chambon was going back to supersport. But I'm not about Suzuki, the last rumour I heard was they were pulling out of SBK but that may or may not happen.

About the time of the Oschersleben WSBK round Suzuki were talking to Gobert, but that obviously came to nought. On mb4u.com it says that the Suzuki World Supebike team (Alstare Corona Extra) are talking to Gregorio Lavilla. WHo to partner him, who knows with Chambon going back to Supersport, Unlikely to be Muggeridge, but maybe, maybe also Corser.

i say that ferrari guy reforms his team and runs corser and chili again like he did in 1998. back then chili was doing doubles and winning more, chili deserves more than the 14 wins he already has. Corser also needs a good team now that hes left Aprilia and Haga is replacing him.

lavilla - must have some unseen racing talent .... i thought he was great on the privateer ducati, but he has struggled on the 750 kwaka - so why would suzuki throw him on a 750, maybe he is better of riding a 1000cc bike.
