Following Effenbert Liberty’s controversial press release regarding the way that today’s World Superbike round at Monza was handled, several disturbing rumors from Italy are now picking up steam.
Apparently team owner Mario Bertuccio had some other choice words for Infront’s management and is now threatening to send to Donington Park (May 13th) only their riders and mechanics and not bring their mega hospitality and that the English round will be their last, while guaranteeing that everyone involved in the Effenbert Liberty teams, from riders to mechanics will be paid.
If the rumors turn out to be true, a pullout by the biggest team in the World Supebike paddock would mean four less bikes on the grid and Infront’s growing and popular championship series getting a big slap in the face.
We hope that the rumors are just that, and in these next few days before the next round, everyone will have time to cool down and solve their issues and put the Italian fiasco behind them and just go racing.
