Smith involved in crash without serious consequences in FP2

Posted on May 03, 2019 by Aprilia Racing Team Gresini

In his second wild card of the season, Bradley Smith’s weekend is off to a solid start. An unfortunate crash toward the end of FP2 left the English rider a bit sore, but from initial checks, it shouldn’t compromise the rest of his race weekend.

Bradley Smith:
"Unfortunately, I hit some debris that was left on the track after Abraham's crash and that made me lose control of the bike. I was thrown by a high side and I fell right in the middle of the track. Fortunately, the other riders avoided me and nothing is broken, although both my ankles are sore. It’s a pity. I was doing a good lap. In any case, I'm pleased with the work done today. We are moving in the right direction and I think we’ll be able to keep going the same way tomorrow."
