Rizla Suzuki testing in Australia

[GunMD]

This is a funny typo (which might be fixed by the time you go there).

Chris Vermeulen, Loris Capirossi and the rest of the Suzuki Grand Prix team traveled to the southern hemisphere to put the new 2008 prototype Suzuki GSV-R through its paces, while the other MotoGP teams gathered at Jerez in Spain for their final tests. Rizla Suzuki MotoGP chose to travel to Australia due to the technical and demanding nature of the 4,448km long circuit and was rewarded for its efforts with a thorough and complete evaluation of the new machine by both riders that will enable the Team to make significant advances in readiness for next year's assault on the MotoGP World Championship.

WOW! That's a LONG track.
