A pre-season 2012 is not easy for Max Neukirchner . The former star of the World Superbike Championship, his second season in Moto2 this time riding the KALEX World Champion in charge of the Kiefer Racing, has not experienced a few problems in the recent three-day test in Jerez de la Frontera. The engine failure and a "clash" in the final day of activities with a Moto3 unidentified, have forced the German driver to stop the work program.
Unable to climb in the standings, Neukirchner still managed to go 113 laps in 3 days looking for the best harmony with KALEX Moto2 . With three weeks of rest from here to the next tests in Jerez de la Frontera always, Max will have time to think about a solution to the problems encountered so far.
"Of course I can not be satisfied with these tests , "says Max Neukirchner. " We just shot the first two days, more in the final test day I crashed at Turn 6 to avoid a Moto3. We lost precious time to make all repairs, so I managed to take only a few laps in the final.
Despite these drawbacks, we now know where to work. For myself I have to change my driving style to adapt better to the KALEX: happily come back to try here in Jerez next month, the ideal to compare the data collected in this session. "
