The official factory Team Suzuki 2016 race plans were revealed today at a press conference held at the EICMA international motorcycle exhibition in Milan.
Commenting for Suzuki on their 'Next 100' plan (that's 100 years by the way), Mr. Eiji Mochizuki said: "In the World MXGP series, the official factory Suzuki team under GRP Suzuki has won many championships and will continue to be a major force in the MXGP world championship in 2016.
"However, there will be some significant changes in the GRP management for 2016 and today we welcome Mr. Stefan Everts as the new team manager of the GRP Suzuki team.
"You will of course know that Stefan is the most successful rider in the history of motocross, with an unprecedented 10 world championship titles. We are pleased to welcome him to this new step in his successful career in the world of motocross racing.
"We are also pleased to announce that Mr. Sylvain Geboers continues as a senior consultant within GRP, supporting and advising Stefan in his new role.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank Sylvain for his many years of loyal service to Suzuki and we look forward to his continuing support as we create a new chapter in the long and successful partnership between Suzuki and GRP.”
