A less then brilliant race day for Aprilia

Different reasons prevented the Aprilia standard bearers from expressing their best potential during the race today at MotorLand de Aragón Bradley’s race was sadly compromised after falling behind the group after a few uncertainties at the start. Bradley’s comeback, even with the good pace he was able to maintain, stopped at nineteenth place in the end.

Bradley Smith:
"My race was decided on the first lap. Because of a gear selection mistake, I found myself at the back of the group with a 4-5 second gap. At that point, it was rather difficult to recover, although I was able to maintain the pace I expected and that makes me see the glass as half full. Rear grip is still an aspect we need to improve. Racing again on the same circuit in a few days will give us a chance to try something completely different."
