WSBK Laguna Seca: Camier plays substitutes for MV Agusta

Leon Camier (and not Jules Cluzel …) will replace Claudio Corti in the official MV Agusta Corse team during the American World Superbike event this weekend on the Laguna Seca circuit.

Leon Camier (and not Jules Cluzel …) will replace Claudio Corti in the official MV Agusta Corse team during the American World Superbike event this weekend on the Laguna Seca circuit.

The English Superbike champion (BSB) in 2009 may not have obtained a handlebar for the 2014 season, but he still has a very good rating with the WSBK teams! The Varese plant is going to give it, at a moment’s notice, the orders of its only F4RR engaged in the competition….

The n ° 19 owes this new "freelance" mainly to his great experience in Superbike: two years on Aprilia alongside Biaggi, then two more on Suzuki … but also to his solid start to the season as, at the helm of the S1000RR (Evo configuration) of the BMW Italia team: Leon appears in 14th place in the drivers’ standings with 30 points scored !

This time, "Kamir" – who has never stopped training – replaces Claudio Corti, victim of a nasty fall in the first phase of Superpole (SP1). The Italian driver, however, hoped to be back this weekend at Laguna Seca, the first radios carried out on the Portuguese circuit not having detected a fracture..

Despite this good news and the apparent good health of "Shorts" – his nickname on Twitter where he keeps tweeting! -, his team prefers to spare him. "Claudio is doing both physically and morally", assures Site Alessia Riboni, the press manager of MV Agusta in Italy.

Only, "given the short time available between Portimao and Laguna Seca, we made the decision together to let Claudio rest and recover". And what about the rumors of the replacement of the Italian by their official French driver registered in Supersport, this category not being in the Californian program? ?

"MV Agusta and Jules (Cluzel, our dear Coq Supersportif, Editor’s note!) Are entirely focused on the WSSP championship", our interlocutor replied bluntly. We will therefore find "Julo" as planned, on September 7th on the track of Jerez.

Claudio Corti should also find his little comrades and his motorcycle there, after the long summer break at the World Superbike and depending on private tests carried out beforehand, in order to check his state of health. "We think he will be in great shape," predicts MV Agusta. To follow naturally closely on MNC and until then, stay connected !
