Camier is now trying to land a
ride with either the Althea or Red
Devils Aprilia teams. He has also
said that he would consider the
British Superbike or AMA Superbike Series if the opportunity presented itself.
"I am pretty upset to be hon-
est," Camier told bikesportnews.
com. "We had shaken hands on
the deal after testing and to be
told yesterday [November 3] that
it wasn't happening for 2014 has
left me disappointed and annoyed. We weren't even going
to test at Jerez unless we had an
agreement, which we got, and
then were finalizing the details
there."
Camier ended up 11th in the
2013 World Superbike Championship after coming back from
injuries twice during the year, the
worst one coming at the Turkish
round where he broke his foot in
seven places.
ZEMKE TO GEICO HONDA
ake Zemke will return to the
motorcycle on which he had
the majority of his success as
the former AMA Formula Xtreme
Champion will join the GEICO
Honda team for the 2014 Daytona SportBike Championship.
"I'm just really excited to be
a part of the program and get
the ball rolling," Zemke said in
a team release. "I wish we were
rolling to Daytona right now to
go racing. The off-season will
definitely be a little bit long for
me. I'm looking forward to getting on the track as soon as
possible. Collectively we've
got quite a few years of experience on Hondas, and it's always
great to get back on a bike you
are comfortable riding. I'm definitely looking forward to putting
some of my Honda knowledge
to the test and help apply it to
the team."
Zemke finished 16th in the 2013
Daytona SportBike Championship, racing in only seven rounds
on a Riders Discount-backed Triumph.
