It was a great weekend for the Top 1 Sponsored Rider, Stevie Bonsey at the Gran Premio bwin.com de España. After qualifying 6th on the grid, Stevie Bonsey finish the race in the same position that he qualified, 6th.
Stevie stayed with the top riders for half the race but the factory bikes of the leaders but lost ground to the factory bikes when his tires started to slide around. Stevie race a smart race in going for a top 10 finish rather than chasing the leaders with a couple of bad tires. Stevie is very confident that he continually improve from race to race and we look forward to some top 10 finishes this year.
Here's what Stevie had to say after the race: "Today was a good day. I was so nervous about the start but as soon as the lights went out I knew it was show time. I ended up with a good start and latched on to the back of the leading group. About 5 or 6 laps in I started sliding around a bit. I think I was over riding the bike threw the turns in order to keep up and make up for their top speed down the straights. But I'm happy and this is a good start to a long season."
