The Airwaves Ducati team are keeping their Black Mint livery for the 2006 British Superbike season finale at Brands Hatch this weekend.

The team first switched from their distinctive red team colours into black at Silverstone to celebrate the launch of Airwaves Black Mint flavour chewing gum.

Reigning BSB champion Gregorio Lavilla will take a one-point lead over HM Plant Honda's Ryuichi Kiyonari into Sunday's double points decider, with Lavilla's team-mate Leon Haslam just nine points behind in third.
