I’m still having a Brad time

BRADLEY SMITH admits he is mentally scarred from crashing out on his MotoGP debut.

The Oxford-based rider was unhurt in Sunday’s fifth-lap smash at the season opener in Qatar.
But he is still kicking himself after waiting 18 months for his bow.
The Monster Tech 3 Yamaha ace, 22, said: “I’m hurting mentally — I was determined it wouldn’t happen in my first race.
“Just when I thought I was getting to grips with a MotoGP bike, I found out the hard way I still have so much to learn.”
