Xavi Fores confirmed to race for BMW Italia

Earlier this afternoon we posted the rumor that Javier ‘XaviFores would replace the retired James Toseland at BMW Italia for the three remaining rounds of the 2011 World Superbike Championship and now this rumor has now been confirmed.
Serafino Foti, BMW Motorrad Italia SBK Team manager, declared: “Xavi is a young rider and has experience with both four-stroke machines and in international races.

He has proved he can be quick and consistent, last year in CEV Superstock Extreme he won 6 out of the 7 races in the championship.
Due to the short time available before Imola next weekend his experience on a BMW S 1000 RR is important.
As he has already raced with this bike Xavi knows some of its characteristics and it will probably be easier for him to adapt to our bike”.
