"I hope that 2009 will be the start of a new era for Team Suzuki Alstare Brux. We are very happy with our new title sponsor and intend to establish a long and successful partnership with them. We know that the WSBK Championship is highly competitive, but we are ready to take on this challenge and will give 100 per cent - as usual.

"Thanks to the support of Brux and the experience and motivation of our riders, the Alstare squad will not disappoint the expectations of its fans!"

Mauro Turchetti - Quattro Ti Dentech president:

"In the first place, I'm a big motorcycle fan. I cannot tell you how happy and excited I am starting this fantastic adventure. For many people, we have become the reference standard in the design and manufacturer of intra-oral devices. Our products help protect the teeth and mouth and also promote good health.

"Today, thanks to its innovative bite tray Brux, we are bringing something entirely new to the motorcycling world. If you have the desire, you can do it: this is my feeling. We compete to win, and our choice of Team Suzuki Alstare is not a random one. In this team, from management to mechanics and riders, I have found many similarities, such as team spirit and the ability to win at all levels. Be careful, we bite!"
