Bradley Smith Talks About Signing For Aspar


"I’ve signed a deal to ride for the Spanish-based Aspar Aprilia team for the next two years. It’s a great compliment and a bit of a surprise to me because being honest, I’ve not had the best of seasons and I also turned them down at the end of last season.

Despite this they kept up their interest in signing me when there are other riders around who are having a better season than me. It’s a great team to join because they have won world championships, Jorge Martinez the team owner is a multiple world champion and I will be in the same team as Gabor Talmacsi and Alvaro Bautista who are former world champions.

I will continue riding in the 125cc class next season but have an option to ride in the 250cc class with them a year later. It’s great to be sorted out for the next two years but I feel so sorry for my present team, who will not be running next year. "
