Imperial Tobacco's Rizla brand has been Suzuki's title sponsor for the past three seasons, with a further one-year extension now confirmed.
Loris Capirossi and Chris Vermeulen will thus continue to race the "Rizla blue" Suzukis throughout the year.
"This is very positive news for Suzuki to continue our partnership with Rizla in today's current difficult climate," said team manager Paul Denning.
"We have enjoyed a very close relationship, both on and off the track, with Rizla during the past three years and have certainly considered all the representatives of Rizla as part of the team.
"Our on track performance during the first two tests has also been very encouraging and shows how much hard work the Factory has put in during the off season. The GSV-R has certainly come a long way since last year and we know there is still more to come - Chris and Loris were both very impressed with the new bike, but we know there is still a lot of work to do.
"The Suzuki team will continue to work hard to keep improving, and we are very positive about our prospects for 2009 in partnership with Rizla."
