Team Suzuki Ecstar
Dorna Sports have just announced its latest agreement with Suzuki Motor Corporation to renew their involvement in the FIM MotoGP World Championship from the 2022 season up until the 2026 season.
Suzuki Motor Corporation will deploy its Factory Team – actually known as Team Suzuki Ecstar – in the MotoGP World Championship’s MotoGP class.
“As Suzuki Motor Corporation we are proud to continue to compete in the MotoGP World Championship. We all share the challenging ambition of measuring ourselves against the top motorcycling competition in the world. We started this new journey in 2015. In only six years we achieved the Riders’ World title, together with the Teams’ title, and we are still hungry for more success. For these reasons we have extended our agreement with Dorna, with the hope and the commitment to continue the development of the technical and racing sides of the company,” says Shinichi Sahara, Project Leader and Team Director
“We are very happy with the renewal of the agreement with Suzuki, a factory with which we have been racing for years in the World Championship and enjoy great cooperation. Their return to MotoGP in 2015 immediately proved a success, confirmed with the culmination of winning the riders’ World Championship in 2020 with Joan Mir. We proudly extend this partnership and hope to continue setting milestones with this iconic brand.” adds Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna Sports.
