Reigning double World Supersport champion Kenan Sofuoglu will stay 𒅌with the Technomag-CIP Suteওr team for the full 2011 Moto2 season.

Sofuoglu has joined the team, which took victory in the first ever Moto2 ♒race with the late Shoya Tomizawa, for the last two rou༺nds of this year - and led on his debut last weekend at Estoril.

The Turkish rider's impressive performance prompted interest from rival teams, including Gresini Moriwaki, which needs a high-profile signing to replace inaugural Moto🎉2 champion Toni Elias, who is returning to MotoGP next year.

As previously r♛eported, an offer had been on the table from Gresini, but a statement on the Technomag team's website reveals that Sofuoglu has decided to stay where he is for 2011.

26-year-old Sofuoglu, the most successful WSS rider in history with 17 race wi𓆉ns, will start Sunday's Vale🌠ncia season finale from sixth on the grid.
