Smith upbeat ahead of new season

Smith is optimistic he can claim a maiden GP win in 2009

Oxfordshire teenager Bradley Smith is confident of ending his wait for his first 125cc World Championship win when the new season starts in April.

The 18-year-old, who will ride for the Bancaja Aspar Aprilia team, is yet to finish higher than second place.

"Last year it just wasn't meant to be. I was in first position many times but the weather or mistakes meant I couldn't win," Smith told BBC Oxford.

"But all that experience from last year has been put into our pre-season."

He added: "Obviously I want that win and I will be looking to stay on two wheels a lot more this season."
