Mikka Kallio looking towards Moto2

Mika Kallio decided pulled out of the final two races of this season due to shoulder pain and try to get fit for next season with an eye on Moto2, but apparently the Finn will be fit enough, if he postpones surgery, to test a Moto2 bike at Valencia in the post season tests, if he should find a team.

Speaking of future plans, Kallio said, “At this point I do not know exactly what will happen.
As I said, the priority was to continue in this category, but as everyone knows there are so few spots and it’s difficult to find a place, so I’m looking at Moto2, and Superbikes, but for now I think Moto2 would be the best option for me.

”Kallio’s name has been linked to a least two teams, one of which is Ajo Motorsports, but even finding a Moto2 team next season will be difficult task without sponsor money and the grid being slashed from the present forty riders to the thirty odd expected to race in 2011.

“There are two, three, four teams are possible options for me … but at the moment I do not know what will happen.

I think maybe in a few days or a week we’ll know more, and of course after the Valencia race will be there for the first test.
