Kuja Racing sign Switzerland's Caiani for World Supersport
23-year-old Caiani was born on September 27, 1988 and despite his young age he has already raced in the Spanish, Italian and German domestic championships as well as in the FIM Superstock 1000 Cup, where he made his debut last year. Caiani already knows Maurizio Cucchiarini's Kuja Racing team for whom he raced a Supersport machine for the first time at Magny-Cours in October. The young Swiss rider, who won in Italian CIV Superstock 600 in 2008 and placed third in 2009, will get down to testing the Honda CBR600 soon.
Team Owner/Manager Maurizio Cucchiarini declared: "We are delighted to include Tom in our plans, which in 2012 will see us involved with a team in World Supersport, and in all probability in Superstock 600. I am confident in his abilities, and we'll give him all of our support for him to demonstrate his potential."
"I am happy to have reached an agreement with Kuja Racing", said Caiani. "In the last two rounds, the feeling with the team was a good one and this is very important to help me to go well. Maurizio and his team believe in me and I'll do everything possible to score some good results. A big thanks to everyone who will support me and follow me in this adventure".
