Team Suzuki ECSTAR Welcomes Wayne Maxwell
Team Suzuki ECSTAR Australia is excited to announce that Wayne Maxwell will join the team for next two years.
Maxwell, who finished runner-up in this year’s Australian Superbike Championship will join Josh Waters aboard the factory supported PTR prepared Suzuki
GSX-R1000, forming one of the most powerful Suzuki rider line-ups in the history of ASBK.
Said Maxwell: “I’m very excited to be joining Team Suzuki ECSTAR Australia for the next two years. Last time Suzuki and I were paired together proved to be very successful, winning my first Australian Superbike championship.
I’m really looking forward to getting back on the GSX-R1000, I know how fast and competitive the GSX-R is having raced against it the last few years, I’m super excited to get to work with Phil, Warren and the rest of the team on repeating our 2013 success.”
Maxwell and Team Suzuki ECSTAR Australia will return to the track for round 1 of the 2019 Australian Superbike Championship kicking off at Phillip Island during the WSBK weekend February 22-24, 2019.
