This weekend the first European GP of this year’s Moto3 World Championship: the Gran Premio Red Bull d’Espana at the Jerez circuit. After three races with two lesser results, this is the first track Bo really knows. Not just from the Red Bull Rookies Cup but from the Spanish Open aswell. With some good constant conditions Bo should be able to score some points in this race.
Circuito de Jerez
Built in 1986 and hosting its first Grand Prix one year later, the circuit of Jerez is now one of the most popular MotoGP venues and the focal point for a city fanatical about sport. Set in a slight valley in the south of Spain, Jerez is blessed with consistently good weather and beautiful scenery, its numerous grandstands providing the perfect viewing facilities for up to 250,000 spectators. With two alternative road circuits (4,423m and 4,428m), which were resurfaced during 2005, Jerez is a popular venue used by many race teams for testing throughout the year, whilst its recently updated corporate and media facilities have proven to be a popular addition to the complex. Other facilities such as the control tower and pit boxes have also been vastly improved.
