Simpson: I under-performed
When the rain came Shaun Simpson was on the list of potential winners if not a podium but the Scotsman surprisingly struggled relative to his usual high level performance in difficult conditions.
To make matters worse the Scot suffered a second moto bike failure as he came through the field after a collision with Max Anstie, but Shaun was as honest as ever and admitted he under-performed.
โWhat a disappointing weekend in Mantova, conditions were tough but should have suited me, basically I under-performed,โ said the RFX powered by PAR homes rider, who will now look forward to Portugal this weekend.
