It looks like Anthony West has changed his mind regarding retiring from motorcycle racing.
The Australian was dropped by Speed Master’s CRT team after he couldn’t come up the sponsorship money to fund his MotoGP ride late last month – they’ve already replaced him with Mattia Pasini – and bitterly added that he would be likely ” not race any more and will return to australia to find a normal job.
Sorry to my fans.
”This sad comment has probably touched a couple team owner’s hearts because West is now claiming that he has received offers to continue riding and is currently thinking them over: “To keep people up to date, I have had some offers to ride BSB, AMA, IDM and endurance racing.
Of course I want to be in GP but all rides are taken and same in WSBK.
I’m just looking for the best way to go, and a team that can win.
And I will start now to try to raise the money to come back into GP or WSBK for 2013.
” If you were in West’s shoes would you choose the highly popular BSB that helped rejuvenate John Hopkins or the AMA and try to be become the next Mat Mladin?
