GET THE catch-fencing ready, Guandalini Ducati has signed Jakub Smrz for another year in WSB.
The bouncing Czech has agreed terms with the team for a third year together in the championship. Smrz finished the year in tenth place overall in the 2009 season with some wild rides.
Smrz, 26 years old from Ceske Budejovice, will be taking part in his fourth World Superbike season in 2010, and it means that this is his fourth on a Ducati.
Although he only managed tenth, the 2009 season was his best in WSB so far, and he recorded one fastest lap, one pole position at Misano and one podium, the only one of his career, in race two at Assen.
Go Jakub!
