Team Effenbert Liberty finished in 4th place in the team classification in the 2011 World Superbike Championship with riders Sylvain Guintoli and Jakub Smrz.
Both riders have already re-signed to the Czech team for 2012 and now they have announced their latest addition with Frenchman Maxime Berger.
Berger was twice on the podium in the FIM Superstock 1000 and finished in 16th place, behind Troy Corser, on his debut WSBK season last year on board the Ducati 1098 of the Supersonic Team.
Berger was invited to test the Liberty Ducati in October in Portimao and the team say he performed well and they’re confident he can be a contender next season.
