Drama and Comebacks Highlight Day 1 at Polisport GP of Spain
Morning riders, it’s Paige Turner, your official BlueMoto reporter
What an absolute thriller to kick off the Polisport GP of Spain in Oliana! The gates dropped under grey skies and the Spanish mud came out fighting straight away. That thin, slippery layer from the light rain made every corner and throttle input a real test of nerve.
Brad Freeman launched like a rocket on his Beta! After lap one he was already leading Josep Garcia by a razor-thin 0.35 seconds. On lap two he started building a massive gap, looking completely untouchable as he flew through the GMOTO Enduro Tests. Heading into the final lap with over 30 seconds in hand, it felt like his victory was all but sealed.
Then came the heartbreak! On the third Enduro Test of the last lap, Freeman crashed hard and lost nearly a full minute getting back on track. The gritty British rider fought like a warrior to the finish and still claimed the E3 win, but headed straight to hospital for checks afterwards.
