More Thursday Morning Moto Racing News - Triumph and WSBK

The Triumph Triple Trophy will be held as a support class for the British Superbike Championship in 2010, and a hard-charging privateer, Mark Evans, will be in there fighting for victory. Evans is hopeful that he will improve on his BMRC 600 Championship seventh place finish in 2009 - and he hopes that some factory teams will like what they see when he is on the track.

No Yamaha Satellite Team in 2010 World Superbike?

That is the way it looks now. The satellite team for Yamaha in 2009 was the GMT 94 team. They have indicated that they will focus entirely on endurance racing for the 2010 season. That leaves no satellite World Superbike team for Yamaha. Even after winning the championship in 2009, only the factory Yamaha team will compete in 2010...how strange...
