"Bennetts has a reputation for leading the bike insurance market. Following four successful years as title sponsors we have decided to focus on other new exciting projects, which we'll be announcing due course. We have really enjoyed our time as title sponsors and our involvement with the teams and riders.

"I wish MSVR and everyone involved with British Superbikes all the best and hope that the Championship continues to be successful."

It so far isn't clear who will take up the mantle of title sponsor for the series for 2009.
