Josef Kubicek, the owner of the Intermoto Pony Expres World Supersport team, has been listed as missing by Czech Police and the squad will not travel to Portimao this weekend.

Rider PJ Jacobsen jumped ship from the team yesterday and it would appear that both Lucas Mathias and Aiden Wagner have followed suit, but to where is not clear at the moment.

Kubicek has reportedly been missing since last Thursday. The disappearance was reported by his wife, who fears for his safety.

As all the trucks, bikes and equipment are in Kubicek’s name, police have said they cannot be moved or tampered with in any way.
