Anthony West

We recently reported that Anthony West posted something quite unbelievable on his Facebook page about quitting motorsports altogether due to FIM (and accusing of Marc Marquez and Valentino Rossi of cheating during their championship-winning seasons). Now, FIM has responded regarding the whole matter involving the young and obviously talented Australian rider. (more…)

Bekas pelumba MotoGP, Anthony West, melabelkan FIM sebagai korup selepas dia dituduh melanggar penggantungan doping oleh badan permotoran dunia itu.

Dia turut mendakwa juara dunia semasa MotoGP, Marc Marquez dan Valentino Rossi sering kali melakukan penipuan bagi merebut kejuaraan dunia.

Segala luahan itu dilakukan menerusi akaun Facebook miliknya:

West bergelut dengan kariernya di litar lumba susulan digantung FIM pada September 2018 ekoran gagal ujian doping buat kali kedua dalam kariernya.

Meskipun digantung, dia membuat keputusan beraksi di Kejohanan Superbike Brazil kerana mempercayai saingan itu tidak berada di bawah kuasa FIM.

Bagaimanapun, dia kemudiannya mendapat amaran dari pihak FIM yang memaklumkan bahawa dia telah melanggar penggantungan yang telah ditetapkan apabila berlumba dengan pasukan Kawasaki Brazil.

Dia turut dipanggil untuk menghadiri FIM International Disciplinary Court bagi menjelaskan tindakannya di samping digesa untuk tidak menyertai sebarang perlumbaan lain sehingga kesnya dibincangkan.

Berang dengan tindakan ini, West kemudiannya menyelar FIM sebagai badan yang korup kerana ‘mereka’ peraturan sendiri agar dia tidak dapat beraksi.

Bukan itu sahaja, dia turut menuduh FIM membenarkan Marquez untuk menjuarai Kejuaraan Moto2 Dunia dengan bantuan ECU khas sementara kejuaraan dunia 500GP Rossi dibantu dengan tayar khas.

Menurut perkongsian di Facebook, West turut menegaskan dia kini mahu bersara daripada arena perlumbaan.

It seems that Anthony West, a once motorcycle racer with huge potential to make it into the big leagues, is extremely upset with how FIM has treated him in the past few years with claims to destroy and ultimately end his racing career.

In his latest post on Facebook, there were a lot of wild things that the furious 38-year-old Australian stated, even related to MotoGP world champions, Marc Marquez and Valentino Rossi. (more…)

  • Anthony West launched an expletive-filled tirade against the FIM.

  • He also announced his retirement from motorcycle racing.

  • West rode for Kawasaki in MotoGP, QMMF in Moto2 and was a WorldSSP race winner.

Anthony West launched an expletive-filled tirade against the FIM. He also announced his retirement from motorcycle racing.

He posted in his Facebook page, “***k FIM I’m done with the sport. You’ll never see me on another motorcycle again in my life. You win you FIM dogs. Your (sic) really low s**t people who should have nothing to do with the sport. FIM have pushed me to lose my ride with Kawasaki here in Brazil. FIM have destroyed my life many times and have put me into depression to the point I wish I was dead. I’m done playing there (sic) bulls**t political games. ***k FIM.

West was a permanent fixture in MotoGP riding in the Kawasaki team, besides being a WorldSSP winner. However, he has been banned for two years after testing positive for stimulants in his urine sample.

It wasn’t the first time he was tested positive with suspected illegal substance. The Australian was tested positive for methylhexaneamine, a substance in nasal decongestant but banned under the FIM Anti-Doping Code. That was when he competed in Moto2 for the QMMF team in Qatar 2012. He denied any wrongdoing but the FIM wasn’t impressed.

Unfortunately, it now appears that West may go down the route taken by fellow-Aussie rider Anthony Gobert.

The race ran its course around the Buriram International Circuit which was filled with more than the usual drama and excitement. One of which would be Anthony West’s disqualification from both races in which he had obtained podium positions.
