We know that Scott Redding’s favorite maxim is “Never give up!” ”, which could be translated as “Never give up”.
And if the Pramac pilot is strong in his head, he is also tough to evil, like most of his playmates.
Yesterday, after being hit on the back by a piece of rubber with enough energy to twist his exhaust and break his saddle, the British rider was fortunately able to keep control of his bike.
Then, a few minutes later, we had to qualify…
Scott Redding on crash.net: “It’s a quick turnaround. In fifth. You skid on the way out and there were jerks. I've only had this feeling on a Pit bike while skidding. Then it was as if the rear had collapsed. At first I thought it was the swingarm, and I thought 'now this is going to be a disaster'.
But then the rear broke and something hit me in the back, which I think was the outer layer of the tire. It broke the exhaust and broke the seat backrest.
Then, afterwards, I understood that it was going to go well. I managed to check the bike and when I saw the tire I realized what had happened.
It looked like the outer layer was gone and I think that's what hit me in the back.
It could have been worse. I'm a little sore but it's the race. I had no choice but to come back and we improved the second bike. It doesn't make you feel confident and, every time I felt a bit of jerkiness over the bumps, I thought 'f**k', not again!
Then I had to qualify, a moment where you normally already scare yourself. I improved my time and I was really happy with it. You can't let this kind of thing hamper you too much. I was a little worried about the Medium (editor's note: we understand that…) so I used a brand new Hard tire to achieve my best time. »
Respect, Mr. Redding!
