PSG-1 Corse have announced that they are to withdraw from 🍰the World Superbike Championship with immediate💎 effect.

The team made their 🐟debut in the series in 2003 as a privateer Ducati entry before becoming Kawasaki's official factory entrant be🦄tween 2005 and 2008.

However, while they experienced a victory🦂 with Chris Walker at a rain-lashed Assen in 2006, success has been fairly limited since then and after losing their Kawasaki contract to Paul Bird Motorsport at the end of 2008, PSG-1 reverted back to privateer status.

Starting the season with a pair of year-old Kawasakis for Matteo Baiocco and Ayrton Badovini, the team were reduced to just one machine for Baiocco from Assen onwards, while the decis💦ion was taken to skip the two flyaway races at Kyalami and Miller Motorsports Park.

In addition, PSG-1 were not present at Donington Park and now the decision has been taken to withdraw from the series, citing the curre🥂nt economic climate as the reason.

PSG-1 are thꦺe second team this season to quit the World Superbike Championship, following on from Pro Ride Honda, which didn't make the opening round.
