Telecom Italia join Althea Racing as new WSB sponsor
Telecom Italia and Ducati have extended their partnership to the Superbike World Championship for the 2012 season as the sponsorship agreement between the two companies in MotoGP is extended to the championship-winning Althea Racing Team.
TIM, Telecom Italia's mobile telephony brand, will be emblazoned on the fairing and front cowls of Althea Racing's two Ducati 1198s, and on the racing leathers worn by Carlos Checa, current World Superbike Champion, and Davide Giugliano, the young Italian rider who last year won the FIM Superstock 1000 Cup.
This partnership strengthens the links between the two companies, both of which share values such as the pursuit of excellence, technological leadership and a desire to compete in major challenges.
