According to the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing team, Brad picked up 11th position during the sprint in Jerez, Spain, after a close miss for the qualifier two on Saturday morning, April 26.<\/p>\n

\u201cI expected more from the Sprint, but the conditions were quite different compared to the morning; it was a lot greasier on track and trickier. I tried my best to manage it.<\/p>\n

\n

The pace wasn\u2019t bad, but I was still too slow.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cWe have a bit too much chatter and we need more edge grip, but my guys have some ideas and we\u2019ll see what we can do tomorrow,\u201d Brad said before the race.<\/p>\n

MotoGP\u2019s official website announced Brad placed sixth on the Circuit de Jerez-Angel Nieto, earning him 10 points for the World Championship Standings.<\/p>\n

Brad is currently 11th in the standings with 32 points and will race again in France at the Michelin Grand Prix de France on May 9\u201311.<\/p>\n
