The British rider strongly voice out that he's complaining about the current Chassis with his teammate used at Mugello. And he has no plan to know all the differences between their Chassis, he just needs to beat him anyways. As everybody knows Pol is contracted directly to Yamaha Motor Company. Although both riders are doing good this season, five of this year six races are in favor of Bradley.
But their crew chief mentioned that there was no guaranteed advantage to the rider having better Chassis. It's just something Pol has a bit of opportunity to try something than Smith.
Anyway it's not something we need to look forward because so far the Briton is still the best Satellte Rider on the grid leading over his fellow countryman Cal Crutchlow by 10 points in the Championship Standings. Also, fighting for the Satellite honors will help him keep his seat at the team until 2016.
Smith quoted at Crash.net "All the factory teams are sown up and there's not many options available. I'd love to stay where I am for a fourth year because I think that stability will be important for next year. It's going to be important to be in familiar surroundings and on a familiar bike.
Next year, many riders are not yet confirmed that they will still stay on their respective team so it is the right time to show a good result now and give an impression for the next season.
Following a solid ride at Mugello, Smith is facing another grueling race at Catalunya where he will fight gain to be the best Satellite Rider with Crutchlow recovering pretty well from his injury he suffered in the last race. And of course, his teammate is confident to perform well with the upgrades. For sure, It is another event that to look forward to.
