EMD: ‘Redding has several weaknesses, says Espargaro’

Scott Redding sports several flaws when it comes to a bid for winning the Moto2™ title this season, according to rival Pol Espargaro. Speaking with Spanish sports daily Mundo Deportivo, the Tuenti HP 40 rider expressed the following about the Marc VDS Racing Team rider who is currently heading up the championship:

“Redding is very inconsistent. He is carrying more weight so is slower on the straights. Plus, he suffers with both tyre wear and with the higher temperatures. In short, he has several weaknesses, we know how to pull back points on him and now is the time to do so.”
