Australian 125 GP Race 3

  • 1505 - Then four riders in that battle for second all put in 73 second laps in the run to the flag but nobody could touch Simmonds who went on to take the win by 8-tenths of a second over Leigh-Smith while Rigoli rounded out the podium ahead of Galvin, Hatton, Inkster, Moller, Thompson, Esler and Campbell
  • 1503 - Blake Leigh-Smith moved up to second place late with three laps to go after putting in a new fastest lap of the race on the previous lap, and then besting that again on the penultimate lap.  Simmonds still enjoyed a 2.2 second buffer out in front though....
  • 1502 - The battle for second then really started to hot up as more riders joined the melee, Rigoli, Leigh-Smith, Inkster, Galvin and Hatton all covered by less than a second...
  • 1500 - Rigoli was holding down second place from a charging Tim Inkster while veteran 125 specialist Peter Galvin watched on just behind the younger pair.  Up front though Simmonds had gone to the tune of 2.4 seconds
  • 1457 - Final 125cc race of the day on now and Brett Simmonds is out to make up for his earlier mechanical problems. The Tasmanian took more than a second out of Rigoli, Galvin and Inkster on the opening lap.
