Aprilia SuperBike 2010 Winner

WSBK, BIAGGI ON APRILIA IS WORLD CHAMPION!

MAX BIAGGI WITH APRILIA FOR THE 2011 AND 2012 SEASONS

Aprilia Racing and Max Biaggi sealed the contract which ties the 2010 World Superbike Champion to the name which has seen him triumph from his début in the 250 Moto GP class.

Thanks to this agreement, which is valid for two years, Max Biaggi and Aprilia will be able to team up together to defend the Rider and Manufacturer titles earned this year. In fact, 2010 was an extraordinary year in sport for the Biaggi-Aprilia duo in World SBK: ten victories, four double wins and another four podiums led the five time champion to take the rider world championship (the first Italian in motorcycling history) and Aprilia to its first triumph in the WSBK Manufacturer standings.

With confirmation of the Biaggi-Aprilia association, one of the most victorious pairs in sports history is renewed: Max boasts five world championships in a record time frame, considering the fact that sixteen years have passed since his first 250 world championship and this year's SBK title. Aprilia boasts a collection of 45 world titles and, with 277 victories in GP, it is the most victorious name in the history of Moto GP.

"I'm obviously very happy to be continuing this winning adventure in World SBK with Aprilia" stated Max Biaggi. "After an exciting but tiring season, after many years of racing and many victories, it was only natural and right to stop and think, to reflect on such an important future commitment. And in my considerations a very decisive factor was, as it was at the beginning of this adventure with Aprilia, the fact that I feel so close to a team and a company which is so capable and so focussed on the sports objective. Now we need to prepare as best as we can for next season. We are well aware that we cannot rest on our laurels and that we will be in all of our rivals' sights. But now I am also sure that we will be highly motivated at the start of the first race, with a bike which I have brought up and which I did not want to abandon, ready to die hard... extremely hard".

APRILIA RSV4 VOTED "BIKE OF THE YEAR 2010" BY "MOTOCICLISMO" MAGAZINE READERS.

Aprilia RSV4, the street version of the bike which has taken Max Biaggi and Team Aprilia Alitalia to the top of the World Superbike Championship, was voted "Bike of the Year 2010" by the readers of the monthly magazine "Motociclismo".

At the conclusion of a widespread survey which involved more than 33,000 readers of the magazine - the most authoritative and historical specialised Italian periodical, founded in 1914 - Aprilia RSV4 R was awarded both the recognition of "Sport Bike of the Year", beating out its rivals, the BMW S 1000 RR and the Ducati 1198 S, as well as, and above all, the title of "Bike of the Year 2010" which elects it as the absolute monarch of the "Motociclismo" readers' preferences.

The awards ceremony which took place yesterday evening at the Edisport headquarters held many other satisfactions in store for Aprilia and the Piaggio Group with further category victories and various placings for the Group's motorcycles and scooters.

In fact, Aprilia won the title of "Bike of the Year" in the 50cc category (with Aprilia RS, which has always been a winner in this category), 125cc (with the larger engine version of the Aprilia RS, in this case also a consistent winner in its class), and Enduro with the Aprilia RXV 4.5/5.5. Second place went to the Aprilia Dorsoduro Factory 750cc in the Supermotard category.

To the Vespa GTS 300 once again this year went the absolute victory for mid-size scooters, while for the over 300cc scooters another two of the Group's vehicles, the Gilera GP800 and the Piaggio Mp3 400 placed 2nd and 3rd. Also, in the "little 50's" group the reader's voted the Vespa 50 S as their second favourite.

Two awards also went to the Moto Guzzi brand yesterday evening: in fact, the "Motociclismo" readers gave the Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 8V 2nd place in the Grand Tourer bike category and third place in the Cruiser category to the California 1100 Vintage.

Aprilia RSV4 is the result of a technologically state-of-the-art project developed entirely by Aprilia. With 36 championship titles win in World Bikes - thanks to an impressive record of 275 victories in the G.P. speed championship - to which another 7 world titles in off road are added, Aprilia is without question the top winner among Italian and European manufacturers today in world championships.

The extraordinary V4 1,000cc engine and the "racing" style of the Aprilia RSV4 have immediately become the new reference point for the sector. The RSV4 already astonished the competitive world at the beginning of the season, earning 9 podiums in 2009 and its first victory on the track at Brno with Max Biaggi. But above all it places itself as a key player in the 2010 championship in which the Team Aprilia-Alitalia RSV4 has already achieved two spectacular double wins, ridden to victory by Biaggi in both races of the Portugal Gran Prix on the Portimao track and the Italy Gran Prix on the legendary Monza Autodrome where Max Biaggi broke - for the first time in the world of Superbike - the "barrier" of 330 kilometres per hour.
