'Through high-level competition, we will sharpen up our technologies, and aggressively feed them back to our production models and interact with Suzuki customers all over the world.
'Suzuki will challenge to improve satisfaction of customers all over the world to a higher level, through racing and our products. We ask our fans to support the Team Suzuki Ecstar.'
Aleix Espargaro, who won the Open Class and finished seventh overall in the premier class last year, will be on the newly developed Suzuki GSX-RR along with 2013 Moto3 champion Maverick Vinales.
