Aprilia has officially confirmed the expected news that 2009 British Superbike champion Leon Camier will ride alongside Max Biaggi in i🍸ts factory World Superbike team next season.

The 23-year-old dominated this y♈ear's BSB championship, winning a record 19 of the 26 races and taking 22 podiums for Airwaves Yamaha to claim an end-of-season advantage of 136.5 points.

A further victory w𒆙as taken from him, after comfortably winning on track, due to smoke emitting from h🐲is bike. That DSQ marked his only non-score of the season, which was his third in BSB and second with GSE Racing.

Earlier in the year, Camier had made his WSBK debut as a wild-card at Donington Park, when he fought forwards from 17th on the grid to finish 13th and sixth on race day for Airwaves Ya💞maha.

Having🀅 wrapped up the BSB title at the penultimate Silverstone round, Camier then returned to WSBK after being handed a chance to replace the injured Shinya Nakano at Aprilia.

Despite being unfamiliar with the RSV4, the Englishman impressed during his two-round 'job interview', which included si🌠xth and seventh places at the Portimao finale, and has now been confirmed back alongside Biaggi for the full 2010🧜 season.

Biaggi took the brand new RSV4 to one 🅷win, ten podiums and fourth in th🌼e 2009 WSBK standings.

Rumours suggest that Aprilia could expand its WSBK presence to a second team in 2010, supporting the Guandalini team of Jakub Smrz, possibly resulting in a ride for MotoGP refugee Alex de Ange🐠lis
