Alstare Suzuki to run a single machine in 2011

Team Alstare has confirmed it will continue with Suzuki into the 2011🐻 World Superbike Championship, but will reduce its effort to just a single entry.
Coming a day after it was announced that Leon Haslam, who will be confirmed as vice-champion at this weekend's Magny-Cours finale, would be r𝄹eleased from his contract, Alstare say🌺s its relationship with Suzuki has been extended, albeit in a reduced capacity.
Despite criticising Suzuki for being reluctant ♚in its decision to fully commit for 2011, a brief statement explained that they will now be announcing a choice of rider at this weekend's French event.
"As alreaꦗdy stated to the media last weekend in Imola, Team Alstare is happy to officially announce that, despite ec✅onomic difficulties, they and Suzuki have decided to continue their co-operation and their work together.
"In order to lower costs for both partners, Team Suzuki Alstare will particip♐ate in the 2011 Superbike World Championship with one bike.
"At the moment, various considerations are being taken regarding🥂 the choice of rider and the final decision will be communicated at Magny- Cours on the evening of Saturday 2nd October."
Suzuki are expected to make a similar announcement this weekend at Motegi in r✨elation to its MotoGP involvement.
