Valencia - RACE 2

Jacub Smrz had avery bad start in Race 2 loosing seven positions in the first corners and another one during the second lap. The remaning length of the race was spent trying catch the front group but a problem with the front forks suggested to hold the 14th position and not take unuseful risks, arriving just a 1/10 of a second from Jonaathan Rea.

On the other side,  a good start from Brendan Roberts, enable him to gain several position on the first lap passing in 12th place, but the consequences of the crash in race 1 and phisicals weakness have slow down Brendan performance finishing the race 8/10 of a second from Parkes in 18th place.

Valencia - RACE 1


Race 1 to forget for Guandalini team caused by the crash of both pilots. During the first lap, Brendan Roberts was forced on the gravel due to Rea’s crash, loosing precious time to re-join the race. As back on the track Brendan starts riding constantly on 1.35.6 gaining positions from last to the group of ten pilots preceding him. On lap 12  his recover was stopped on turn 8 by a high side. Pilot was taken in the medical center with an ambulance and after a check up  only few contusion were diagosticated and rider ok. Jacub Smrz was riding in 13th position at the end of the first lap and after being passed by Max Biaggi. Trying not to loose distance from the preciding pilots a low side caused by lost of grip in the front stopped his race.
