We all saw the end of the Donington Superbike race last weekend and the crash from the Spanish rider Ruben Xaus during the red flag situation.
After the misunderstanding between Ruben and team-mate Max Biaggi when Biaggi was taking his 3rd podium place, the Sterilgarda Go Eleven Team has issed a press release, saying:“GMB Racing, entered in the Superbike World Championship under the name of Team Sterilgarda Go Eleven, wishes to apologize to FGSport and all fans for the untimely reaction of its rider, Ruben Xaus, due to a misunderstanding following the awarding of the podium after the end of WSBK race 1 at Donington on Sunday.
”Marco Borciani, the Team Manager declared: “We are very sorry about the behaviour of Ruben in the podium area, and we also wish to apologize to our rider, Max Biaggi, for the words expressed to him by his team-mate.
We fully understand Xaus’s heated reaction, because at the time it may have seemed that injustice had been done towards him, due to a clause in the regulations.
The matter has now been cleared up and put behind us by both the team and its two riders.
