Team Stiggy Honda has signed Italian rider Gianluca Vizziello to ride alongside Anthony West to complete their Supersport Championship line-up for 2009.

“I must say that I feel like the happiest person in the world right now!” said Gianluca.
“Straight after signing the contract with Stiggy the other day, I didn’t really show my enthusiasm but now, when everything has sunk in, I have been celebrating for three days!” “The WSS championship is tough and highly competitive, but for next year I know that I will have one of the best and fastest bikes in the championship.
I will work and fight hard to finish on the podium in every race.
My goal for next year is to try to finish in the top five,” he declared.
