Jerez, Spain - Red Bull GASGAS Tech3's rookie rider, Jacob Roulstone, delivered a gritty performance at the 2024 Spanish Grand Prix, securing a 12th place finish despite battling injuries from a crash in Q2. The Australian rider showcased his determination and resilience, earning points for the fourth consecutive race in his debut Moto3 season.
The race conditions were significantly better compared to Saturday's unstable climate, allowing Roulstone and his teammate to leverage their practice speed. Despite the setback from the crash, Roulstone integrated into the third group of riders, maintaining a steady pace throughout the 19 laps.
"Not a bad race today. It was a bit painful for me but I decided to push through," Roulstone commented. "I was feeling OK but with about ten laps to go, when I was at the front of the group, my shoulder and wrist started to hurt a lot more so I settled into my pace. Iām happy to have finished and in the points, which was good. Thanks to the team!"
