Smith launches MotoGP 09/10 videogame

Nineteen year-old Bancaja Aspar rider Bradley Smith took on over 50 journalists in a series of Grand Prix races featured on the new MotoGP 09/10 videogame produced by Capcom.

Following some titanic battles a new Tissot MotoGP watch was awarded to the journalist who eventually beat Bradley in a three-lap race of the Mugello circuit in Italy, where Bradley won his second Grand Prix of the season last year.

“It’s a brilliant game, not only for the racing at all the MotoGP venues including the new circuits at the Balatonring in Hungary and Silverstone in England, but all aspects of Grand Prix racing including sponsorship, livery and PR,” explained Smith, who was joined by fellow British riders Scott Redding and Danny Webb at the launch. “There were some serious game players there and I'm glad I don't have to meet them out on the track!”

The 2010 British Grand Prix will take place on the weekend of 18th-20th June at Silverstone.
