Miller Motorsports Park and Infront Motor Sports Sign a Three-Year Contract Extension
31 May 2009 - infront sport
Miller Motorsports Park and Infront Motor Sports sign a three-year contract extension for FIM Superbike World Championship US Round.
Miller Motorsports Park and Infront Motor Sports, organizer and promoter of the FIM Superbike World Championship, announced today that they have signed a three-year contract extension that will see the world’s third-biggest racing series making an annual visit to Utah through 2013.
The original agreement with Infront Motor Sports (previously named FGSport), which is based in Rome, Italy, was for three years, ending in 2010. However, a new agreement has been drawn up and agreed upon, giving the FIM Superbike World Championship a stable home in North America and guaranteeing Miller Motorsports Park’s marquee event for the next half-decade. The agreement also provides for the FIM Supersport World Championship to accompany the World Superbikes for the duration of the contract.
“We could not be more pleased to reach this agreement with Infront Motor Sports,” said MMP CEO and President Dan Davis. “It was important to us to secure this event for Miller Motorsports Park and fans across North America. Over the past few years, the business plan for the FIM Superbike World Championship has proven to be insightful and prudent, and we feel the championship is better positioned than any other racing series in the world right now. The management and staff of Infront Motor Sports, as well as the teams in the championship, have been terrific to work with. We have established a very good working partnership, and we look forward to five more successful and mutually beneficial years together.”
“Miller Motorsports Park is a world class facility and we have been extremely satisfied with our first event in Utah last year” said Infront Motor Sports SBK Director Paolo Ciabatti. “Teams and riders really enjoyed the experience and as a result they voted MMP for the “Circuit of the Year” award, as the best venue of the 2008 championship. The new agreement is a demonstration of the excellent relationships with the management and staff of Miller Motorsports Park and shows our commitment to the US market. With seven manufacturers officially engaged in our series and thirty permanent riders, the FIM Superbike World Championship is now stronger than ever and therefore we look forward to a successful and long lasting relationship with Miller Motorsports Park for the years to come.”
