The Alstare Corona Suzuki team will race in the 2003 World Superbike Championship on GSX-R1000 Superbikes.

That’s the word from Corona Extra Suzuki AMA team principal Tim Saunders, who has close ties to the Alstare Corona Suzuki team, and from Yoshimura Suzuki’s Don Sakakura, who says the Alstare Corona Suzuki team will test with other factory Suzuki teams at Sepang, Malaysia January 12-18.

Neither Saunders nor Sakukura knows who will ride for Alstare Corona Suzuki in 2003.

In 2002 Alstare competed in World Superbike with Gregorio Lavilla and in World Supersport with Katsuaki Fujiwara and Stephane Chambon, but the team has made no announcement regarding its 2003 riders.

In related news, Frenchman Jean-Michel Bayle tested a Corona Extra Suzuki AMA Formula Xtreme GSX-R1000 in California in December.
