We present some new Poisson bivectors that are invariants by the flow of the
nonholonomic Suslov problem. Two rank-four invariant Poisson bivectors have globally defined
Casimir functions and, therefore, define cubic Poisson brackets of the five-dimensional state
space with standard symplectic leaves. For the Suslov gyrostat in the potential field we found
rank-two Poisson bivectors having only two globally defined Casimir functions and, therefore,
we say about formal Hamiltonian description in these cases.
