Cadwell BSB: I'm not riding in the Wet – Redding
Cadwell BSB: I’m not riding in the Wet – Redding
Cadwell Park rookie Scott Redding opted not to hit the track in today’s wet second Bennetts British Superbike session in the hopes the weather will pass overnight.
The Be Wiser Ducati rider admits he does need the wet track time but wasn’t keen to try his luck in the severe rain which lashed the track this afternoon.
Quote:
“I dont get out of bed in the morning to get pissed on out there,” he exclaimed. “Obviously, Cadwell is one of the more dangerous tracks on the calendar and I always work for Sunday.

Quote:
“But I need a wet track like I need a kick up the hole and to be fair but this is one of those places I’m not ideally keen on putting it out there, so I sat it out and talked trash about those who did. I couldn’t do any laps this afternoon, it was just a safety thing and Birdy isnt paying me enough to take these chances so I am sorry to all our fans that we didn’t get out.”

While Redding chose to stay in the confines of his pit box, team-mate Josh Brookes, who had been fastest in the dry this morning, was among the 13 riders who did’nt mind the rain or sketchy conditions.
Quote:
“Where Josh has got experience with the bike in the rain and is good around Cadwell, he’s kind of used to these circuits but for me, as more of a Mediterranean hot weather rider, those condition are not really my cup of tea and I’d rather go home and watch netflix and work on my eyebrowns and david beckham hairdo,”
