According to Corser, Biaggi will struggle in WSB next year. Corser doesn't have a contract yet, and is feeling a bit left out. If he stays in WSB, there'll be some serious battles between the two i reckon.
Corser told Eurosport: “Max was a good rider in Moto GP but not a great one. He never got to the top, which is a major concern for me.
“He will find it hard crossing to Superbikes and how relaxed it is compared to Moto GP. We're not superstars here, just normal people, and the egos are nothing in comparison.

Yeah, I think he will be mediocre, at best. I think he'll probably be in the top 10 every weekend, if not the top 5; no whether or not he gets on the podium, and wins races is a question mark in my head. Also, in WSBK it seems that 'team orders' comes into play every now and then, and Biaggi has never hit me as a 'team' player ....
The problem with biaggi is that he lost the will to win. He is a good rider very smooth and very fast when everything is perfect for him. The trouble is against fighter like Tosland and Bayliss he wont stand a chance those guys would do anything to win a race. I watched Bayliss at Silverstone UK a few years back in heavy rain battling with Colin Edwards and he came of his Ducati at least 4 or 5 times and kept picking it up and getting back on. Was a fantstic race to watch Edwards won it in the end but Bayliss wasn't far behind.
Sorry rambling again... Short answer is no I don't think he has the guts for it any more and I think he must believe it's going to be easy on WSB I think he's in for a shock :lmao:
