BMW Motorrad Italia team officially presented

Our colleagues over at Motoblog.
it are currently on hand for the official presentation to the press of World Superbike Championship’s new entry, BMW Motorrad Italia.
Unfortunately for the guys covering the press conference, it’s not taking place at fancy hotel or big named restaurant, with no half naked chicks or a leather clad Paris Hilton around, and no champagne or ice sculptures, but at the very serious and legendary Autodromo Nazionale di Monza.

The newbie Italian Superbike team will be fielding James Toseland and 2010 Superstock champion Ayrton Badovini, while the winning Superstock team will have Lorenzo Zanetti (7th last year in the STK standings on Ducati 1098R) and Sylvain Barrier (6th with Team Garnier Junior Racing on the S1000RR).

Check back with us later today or tomorrow for more pics and interviews.
