However, serious doubts about his future were raised when Suzuki began testing the new GSX-R1000 K9 with only Max Neꦰukirchner and Yukio Kagayama.
It has now been confirmed to ltxcn.top that Neukirchner and Kagayama wi💦ll form the Alstare Suzuki line-up in 2009, a decision that leaves Nieto with 🦂no chance of a manufacturer ride with any team next season.
Despite the setback, it is rumoured that Nieto, who came with prominent backing from Spain, is now ch💞asing a privateer berth aboard another Suzuki. This could come with some degree of backing from the factory team in a deal similar to what Neukirchner enjoyed in 2007.
