Scott Redding wins in Valencia

Although beaten in to the first corner by several riders at the start of the race, Scott Redding found his way back to the front by the end of lap one.

From here Redding began to pull away to create a 12 second lead.

The rest of the field managed to claw back some of the gap, but Scott Redding still managed to win by a clear 9.8 seconds.

Scott Redding said: “I pushed really hard from the start and then everything seemed to go just right and apart from the windy conditions during the race, and the first right hander seeming to be extra slippery for some reason, I had no problems.   

“The team had the bike running really well.”
