  • Biography;

    He is only 15 years old, but this young Briton has been racing sine he was 9, i.e. more than half his life. In 1997 he began taking part in motocross and supercross races, winning the British Championship in 2001. In 2004 he tried for the first time a road racing championship and finished fourth in the MRO Superteen Championship including a first victory in Lydden and seventh in the MRO GP 125cc Championship after only competing in three rounds.

    Bradley took part in the CEV Spanish Road Racing Championship, in the 125cc class in 2005, on a Honda of the MotoGP Academy Team. The young British rider finished second overall, one point behind the Champion, after winning the final three rounds of the Championship in Albacete, Valencia and Jerez. He was tenth overall in the British 125cc Championship the same year, despite missing many rounds due to MotoGP Academy commitments.

    These results have awarded him with a place in the Repsol Honda Team 125cc under the guidance of Alberto Puig, to contest the 2006 125cc World Championship.
