Having to cancel their World Superbike debut at Assen due to flight restrictions in Europe caused by the Icelandic volcano eruption, Yoshimura Suzuki Racing Team has now confirmed that they will debut at the Monza round next month for the first of three programmed wildcard entries.
The famed Japanese team has obtained last minute permission from the Monza organizers, which will see the team and Yukio Kagayama (who now rides in BSB with Worx Crescent Suzuki) take part in the races scheduled for May 9th.
Said Yoshimura Team Manager Yohei Kato: “Since our Assen WSBK cancellation due to the airline chaos caused by volcanic activities in Iceland, the Yoshimura Suzuki Racing Team has been working to reschedule its debut and we will now participate at the next round in Monza.
Without the support from everyone, it could not have been done and we are glad to have this opportunity to challenge at this stage.

September 26th: Imola, Italy – Daisaku Sakai.
