Biaggi and Aprilia leave for two laps !
Max Biaggi and Aprilia signed yesterday at Noale a contract for the next two seasons 2011 and 2012. The winning duo of the World Superbike 2010 set off again for two laps in search of new victories, new podiums… and new titles ?
After several weeks of silence and uncertainties – at 39, will Max Biaggi assert his pension rights? -, Aprilia has just confirmed what all fans of the five-time world champion have been waiting for: the Roman Emperor and Noale’s firm have sealed a contract for the next two seasons 2011 and 2012 !
Against retirement at 40
"I am obviously very happy to continue this winning adventure of the SBK world with Aprilia"Max rejoices."After a very interesting but tiring season, after many years of racing and many victories, it was natural and logical to stop to reflect, to meditate on such a commitment so important for the future".
Because from the top of his five world titles (four in GP 250 and a fresh one in WSBK) and with a continued presence in the World Top 5 regardless of the category contested, Max Biaggi also contemplates 53 podiums and 23 victories in "two and demi ", 58 podiums and 13 victories in the premier class (500 and MotoGP), then 47 podiums and 14 victories in Superbike…

"I’m a badass!"
So the Roman Emperor took the time to carefully weigh the pros and cons – and the amount of Aprilia’s check? – to finally choose to stay with the objective of defending his title and that of his RSV4 Factory !
"In my considerations, a very determining factor played", underlines the famous n ° 3:"that of feeling so close to a team and a company that is also successful and ambitious in its sports programs".
"We are well aware that we cannot rest on our laurels and that we will be the target of our rivals. But I am also convinced that we will be very motivated at the start of the championship, from the first race, with a bike that I have developed and that I did not want to give up, I am a tough guy. ("ready to die hard" in English in the text, NDLR), extremely badass"… To follow on the Site: stay connected !
