Re: New Blade enters WSBK

No matter what one thinks about the new WSBK rules, the series should be more interesting next year. from WBSK website
Finally a serious racing effort with Blade. Looks like there will be at least some teams in the WSBK too
- Fila Ducati (Laconi and Toseland confirmed for next season)
- Ten Kate Honda (Chris Vermaulen confirmed)
- Alstare Suzuki???
- Foggy-Petronas (Corser & ??)

Maybe there is a future for WSBK anyway. I don't thing Yamaha will stay out ('04 they have more RWHP in stock form
than current WSBK bikes, right? Maybe we see the Blade in the TV-picture when it is getting lapped )

EDIT: link updated to point to now archived news item
