No Laguna Seca GP for Takahashi

According to the well informed gpone, Yuki Takahashi will not be racing in this weekend’s Red Bull U.
S.
GP at Laguna Seca, due to back problems.
Officially the Japanese rider has suffered from back problems that were worsened after his crash during the Catalunya GP, but the Clinica Mobile reported that Takahashi fractured his middle finger and picked up a haemithorax contusion in Spain and at Assen, after another crash, he severely bruised his right knee.

The Italian website also reported that the Takahashi may need to undergo surgery on his back and recovery could take at least three months.
The team decision was taken after the Dutch GP race, but strangely enough Takahashi, who has such back problems that may require surgery, will be in the States, but not riding, so the team can concentrate completely on newcomer, Gabor Talmacsi.
Team Manager Cirano Mularoni has admitted: It’s a difficult situation because contrary to what I’ve read, there are no extra spare parts for RC212V and from the Brno GP with the limit on the number of engines we would have even more problems, not to mention the problems we would have faced in a flag to flag race where we would have dad to change tires instead of the bike.

Talmacsi’s surprise arrival in the team with the season well underway, and his personal sponsor MOL (Magyar Olaj) a leading oil company in central Europe, which has become Scot Racing’s new official sponsor has helped the private team overcome exsisting financial problems for this year, but has obviously put Takahashi’s MotoGP career at risk.
