Bradley takes Second and sets track record at Indianapolis |
Pro-Lite Sponsored MotoGP rider Bradley Smith took second in a grueling battle at Indianapolis this past weekend. Bradley says, "I think that today's result was very positive, because I finished ahead of every rider that was above me in the championship standings. It's been a while since I was last on the podium, and I think that I really needed this. I hope that we can keep up this form at Misano next weekend. At one point in the race I doubted whether I could take a podium, because we were truly at the limit all the time. It was tough to keep up the pace, let alone overtake. Nico was very combative during the race, so passing him on the last lap with a circuit record was a big achievement for me. A little mistake on the entry to the home straight stopped me from fighting with Espargaró. Unfortunately I wasn't able to take the victory, but I hope to be in shape to try again next Sunday. Second place has helped to motivate me, and it will keep me focused for the upcoming races." Aspar Press also reports that Bradley "recorded a mercurial 1'49.039 circuit record on his final lap..."
