Oschersleben without TKF ?

Look at this : http://www.fim.ch/sec/documents/f_4657.pdf

It's caught me by surprise, this has. I knew they weren't at Suzuka but I fully expected them at Oschersleben! I'll try to find out what's going on.

I'll tell you one thing. Rider Gwen Giabbani was very angry that TKF sabotaged his chances of winning the World Championship this year - and, without any kind of press release that I've seen, this disappearance from the German round is very hard to explain away.

Maybe it means that teams which don't go to every races of this championship are retired from the list of the permanent teams and loose their advantages. It's only a theory. It doesn't mean that TKF won't be at Oschersleben, but may be the team is not considered as a permanent team now because it won't go to Suzuka.

Even though they're not on the official entry list, I've since found
out from a trusted source that the team WILL be at Oschersleben, though
there's very little information coming directly from the team. The
website is just a couple of pages and isn't considered that important -
indeed, hasn't been updated since it was started.



Since I have been covering World Endurance, I have found that Christian
Bourgeois isn't the most communicative of the team managers and
therefore most information about the team is either third-hand or pure
speculation. Even the riders can be unsure of what's going on.

Hallo, I am new here, so I would like to introduce myself.

I come from Croatia and I cover WEC for Croatian web portal www.motori.hr .

Now the question: are there any rumors why TKF didn't start at Suzuka 8 hours? Any guess?

They were leading the series after Albcete and it does not make the sense that Burgeoas deliberately "cuted the branch" and ruined the chance to win the Championship.
