Is he going to Moto 2, it seems nothing has been confirmed!
But do you think he should stay in 125's and have another shot at the title ?
Some say he has unfinished business there. I disagree coming second in such a difficult class where the racing is very very close is a superb result.
Some say that he should stay in 125's and let the others moving up develop the bike and iron out the problems. In some respects i agree but i think it depends on which team he has the options of going for!
If it were to be an unproven team (a non factory outfit) then i think he would be wise to stay where he is and be the number 1 rider for Aspar and move up after hopefully winning the 125 class and probably have alot of offers to choose from an established team.
But if it were say to be Aspar then he should go with them and help develop the bike and that way even if he were to be lower down the field at the end of the season he would have an advantage for the following year, of knowing the bike? _________________ Speed Limits are Minimums and remember Opinions are like arseholes, everyone has one

I think he should stick with Aspar and see how Moto 2 pans out. There will be a pecking order in the class even though they will be using the same engines, so he can then try and get a ride with one of the top teams rather than risk picking a ride that won't get him to the top of the grid. |

He's a Ginga... . Anyway... you must be related, you have the same surname http://www.bradley-smith.co.uk/ <<-- Click
Nice lad too, had a chat with him at Donnington a couple of years ago
I agree with Pip, although the engines are the same, if he doesn't get into a top team he might struggle there. Personally, I'd like to see him lift a title in any class _________________

I think he should stay and have another shot. It's great to have a Brit up there with the rest. |

I think Bradley could be better off staying put, the Moto2 class sounds like its about to get a revolution in machinery from bits i have read. Correct me if im wrong but i think Supermonos were mentioned. This i think is going to do absolute wonders for many areas in racing ie technology. but with all the changes going on he could do well to grab another podium on 125s and step in to moto2 next time round with some more experience in general which is never a bad thing and perhaps better team and sponsership prospects later on. _________________ Ogri wouldn't have stood for this sh*t!! |
