' David Haagsma charged his way into the
second spot in Moto One, but he wasn't able
to catch Bradbury out front |
“I’m pumped,” said Haagsma. “I got second at
the start of the first moto and fell back to third.
I got into second, but first was out of reach
and it came down to the second moto. I got an
inside line at the start of the second moto. I
got second on the first lap in one of the split
lanes. Cody fell off at the midpoint and I capitalized
on it.”
