Althea Racing presents 2010 line-up
Genesio Bevilacqua : "We have worked very hard to prepare our team for the next racing season and now I can say that we are ready for the 2010 Superbike World Championship. Everything is set to compete in world and Italian Superbike championships. Once again we must thank Althea and all our sponsors who allowed our team to be so competitive. Now we are prepared to go to Portimao for the first test of the year. On the Portuguese circuit we'll be able to compare our team with all our competitors".
Carlos Checa :"In few days we'll leave for Portimao and I will be able to start to work with my new technicians in order to start the Superbike world championship in the best possible way. My team worked very hard to prepare the bikes and I'll do my best starting from the first test session in Portimao because I want to start this 2010 season in the right way"
Shane Byrne :"I'm really very happy to be part of this team. Today I saw my new Ducati bike for the first time and I'm eager to ride it in Portimao. Now I know all the components of the team and I'm sure it will be exciting work in such a professional squad, especially with Carlos Checa alongside. He's got a lot of experience and I'm sure he'll be a great teammate. This year I want to firmly stay in the first positions in every race".
The entire team will fly to Portimao for three days of testing (22nd, 23rd and 24th of January), followed directly by two more days of testing at Valencia (27th and 28th of January).
