Gabor Talmacsi lost his Moto2 ride after the Jack& Jones by Antonio Banderas team dropped out of the 2011 championship after losing their title sponsor, was invited to Sepang to test for Pedercini’s Kawasaki team to see if he could come to grips with the ZX-10R.
Apparently due to the rain and the fact that team was rightly concentrating their efforts on contracted rider Roberto Rolfo, Talmacsi didn’t get enough time on the bike, the Hungarian has still to decide if he actually wants to switch to the World Superbike championship and has stalled in giving his final decision to the Italian team, calling for a couple of days of think over time.
With official Superbike tests at Portimao taking place in two weeks time and the season opener at the end of February and no other offers in sight, Talmacsi will have to decide if he actually wants to compete or if retiring is really the only other option.
Our opinion is that there are a lot of unemployed riders out their looking for a job who’d kill for the opportunity.
