FARMINGDALE, NJ – Bel-Ray Company, Inc. – The Tech3 Racing team of Bradley Smith and Mike DiMeglio competed this past week in Misano, Italy. After qualifying in 6th position, Smith gained an early advantage by timing the start excellently. He stayed right on the lead pack eventually settling for 6th position when the checkered flag fell. Smith’s rookie Moto2 season has been one of ups and downs, but he is finishing strong. Smith is currently in 5th place in the series standings, just 10 points out of a podium spot. Teammate DiMeglio has been struggling all season long, but is finding bright spots along the way. This weekend DiMeglio was 16th place in this very competitive class. The team will enjoy a weekend off before returning to action in Spain on September 18th.
After a 2 week break the World Motocross Championship Series returned to action in Gaildorf Germany.
