Bermuda’s Divine Reflects on Bittersweet Weekend
It proved to be a weekend of high drama and misfortune for Bermudian rider Aeziah Divine, who showed tremendous pace before a crash ended his charge in race two.
Starting from 23rd on the grid in race one, Divine produced a brilliant fightback to carve his way through the field and finish 11th. He carried that momentum into race two, battling in the front group before a front-end crash ended his race prematurely.
"A roller coaster sort of weekend at Silverstone was wrapped up today with another strong step made and lots of positives to walk away with despite some hiccups," Divine said after the race.
"Some recent bad luck struck again with another tricky race this morning. I pushed hard to stay with the leading group and was able to have some great battles within it for the first half of the race.
"Unfortunately, coming into one of the hard braking corners I started to have a lot of chatter and tucked the front. Sadly I couldn’t save it and took a good friend out with me. Really sorry you got caught up in that, Henry."
Despite the disappointment, Divine remains upbeat about his overall progress over the weekend.
"Despite the challenges, there are positives to take away, including working my way up to P11 from P23 in race one, then running well in the leading group for the first time in race two."
