es is reporting that BMW Italia has asked former Aspar Moto2 rider ‘Xavi’ Fores to replace the James Toseland who was forced into retirement, for the final three rounds of the World Superbike championship.
The Italian Superbike team after letting MotoGP rider Toni Elias test their machine the Misano, has yet to announce who will be riding at the Imola round this weekend, but Fores would seem a good choice as he’s currently riding in the CEV Buckler Stock Extreme championship with a BMW S1000RR for Motorrad Competicion team after being axed by Aspar Martinez’ Moto2 team for the usual ‘lack of results’ reason.
Fores is no stranger to the world racing scene as he competed in the World Supersport and also in the Superstock 1000 FIM Cup in 2009, where he finished 4th overall in the championship.
