With the 2010 WSBK season at an end, more and more pieces are falling into place for 2011. With the factory Xerox Ducati team being disbanded, the question of where Michel Fabrizio and Noriyuki Haga would end up was at the front of many people's minds. Haga has since moved to the privateer DFX Borciani Aprilia, leaving only Fabrizio officially unsigned.
An announcement yesterday by the Alstare Suzuki team ended that situation. Alstare announced what most people had suspected, that Michel Fabrizio would be joining the team for 2011. The signing was barely news, given that the Italian had tested the Suzuki at the post-race tests at Magny-Cours, but the deal was only made official yesterday.
Fabrizio will be the team's only rider, as Alstare is scaling back its involvement in line with a reduction in factory support. That reduction already saw the team lose Leon Haslam to BMW, but with Fabrizio back with the team - the Italian won the 2003 Superstock championship with Alstare - they at least have a good shot at being competitive. The press release appears below:
