With Ducati having pulled out their factory team from the World Superbike series and Suzuki willing to support Alstare Suzuki only with one rider, finally some good news from Honda Motor Europe who has announced that they have finalized a new three-year agreement to support Ten Kate Racing in the Superbike championship.
With this announcement the Dutch team will continue after nine world championship titles – eight in World Supersport and one in World Superbike to be its number one supported team in the World Superbike paddock and the new agreement is intended to give the team stability and continuity for its long-term development.
The team has already officially announced Jonathan Rea as their 2011 rider, but have yet to confirm if Hannspree will continue to be their main sponsor and if their budget will allow them to field a second rider.
