Schoolboy motorcycling sensation Bradley Smith secured his best ever finish in just his tenth 125cc grand prix appearance with a superb 12th place in the German Grand Prix at the Sachsenring on Sunday.
But he still was not satisfied.
"I should have made a practice start in the morning warm-up," said the 15-year-old from Wheatley, who made a bad start on his Repsol Honda.
"It was a really hard fight after that," added Smith (pictured above).
"I remember coming into the very last bend just asking the bike to stand up as I was getting close to the wall. It did, but now I must practice those starts."
Smith secured his first ever World Championship point two weeks ago in the British Grand Prix.
