BMW of Hungary and Wallis BMW asked Talmacsi to be their ambassador for BMW models. Gabor has developed an outstanding relationship with BMW, since they are one of the key strategic partners of MotoGP and are represented at every race in the paddock.
Throughout the partnership, Gabor has driven an X5, i3 and GT3 on the streets of Budapest.
“The BMW G 310 R is a specifically quick and easily manageable motorcycle, its dynamism surprised me, as well as its everyday utility. I think it is an excellent step from BMW Motorrad to offer such a strong alternative in this category as well” said Gábor Talmácsi, when he shared his first impressions during the handover.
“It is a great honor and joy that Gábor Talmácsi has accepted our invitation to be the ambassador for BMW Motorrad Hungary. Talma’s outstanding sporting career, his personality and his in-depth professionalism perfectly fit the values represented by BMW Motorrad.

BMW Motorrad is building a success story in Hungary as well, during the first six month of this year, BMW is the most popular brand in the category above 500 cm3, the upcoming novelties during the year will greatly contribute to keeping this position. We believe that Gábor Talmácsi and his activities as the brand ambassador will give more attractiveness and more reason for choosing the BMW motorcycles” said Balázs Zámbó, the motorcycle brand leader at BMW Group Hungary during the handover at the Wallis Motor Pest motorcycle salon on Hungária Boulevard.
