“The new One Raceway track was great, I felt really confident in myself and the bike. the track was smooth and fast throughout the majority of the weekend,” said William. “I had an ‘off’ at the top of the track but that didn’t set me back at all, as I was out for the next qualifying session. during the R3 cup races.

“I got some really great starts and made my way up to 3rd in one of the races, before it got red flagged. The race restart was good, I got another good start and made my way up to 4th after starting 5th. Overall it was a challenging yet amazing weekend and I can’t wait to see what I have to offer at round7 at the bend in South Australia.”
