After their announcement last December regarding their plans to take part in several World Superbike races, Yoshimura Suzuki has now revealed their program for 2010.
Yoshimura Suzuki has decided to take part in three rounds with two different riders.
The first race will be at Assen, with former WSBK rider Yukio Kagayama, the second race will be at Imola (pending contract negotiations with the Italian track) with Daisaku Sakai riding.
Sakai is in his third year with the team and the 2009 runner up in the All Japan Superbike Championship.
Sakai was chosen for Imola because Yukio Kagayama who was bartered for Sylvain Guintoli in Alstare Suzuki will be racing for Worx Crescent Suzuki in the BSB Silverstone round on Sepember 26th and Kagayama will be back with Yoshimura for the WSBK Magny Cours round.
The Japanese team will also be competing in the 2010 Suzuka 8 Hours with Kagayama, Sakai e Nobuatsu Aoki, who is presently Suzuki’s MotoGP test rider.
