Sixth for Bo at Albacete

In the fifth round of the Spanish Open at the track of Albacete, Bo took a good sixth. He rode a smart race and was pleased with his result. “ We didn’t have as many tracktime as we wanted this weekend. Most of the riders had a test here last week. For me it was almost two month ago I rode the Honda. Looking at that I think we should be very happy with this result.” Despite crashing twice in practice and in qualifying, Bo was eighth on the grid. After a few laps he worked his way up to sixth. Three riders in front were battling it out for the win. Bo was in the chasing group two seconds behind. In front Canet was able to get away from Bulega and Arenas. Bo was slowly losing ground on his fellow riders in the group and lost the connection, leaving him in sixth at the finish. With this result he stays in sixth in the championship. “ Because of the little tracktime we had, we weren’t able to set up the bike that well. I had to take a lot of risks to stay in that group fighting for fourth. I decided not to take any risk anymore. Next week I could take the Cup in the Red Bull Rookies at Misano, I didn’t want to risk crashing . “
