Moto Ain recruits Vinales to replace recovering Smith for 24H SPA EWC Motos
Spanish rider Isaac Viñales has been named as Bradley Smith’s replacement for next month’s 24H SPA EWC Motos. The former Moto2 and Supersport World Championship racer will join French squad Moto Ain, run by Pierre Chapuis, for the second round of the 2022 FIM Endurance World Championship as Briton Smith recovers from injuries sustained in a crash at the start of the 24 Heures Motos at Le Mans in April. Ad/> Viñales, the 28-year-old cousin of MotoGP ace Maverick Viñales, is new to the EWC but got the opportunity to sample the legendary Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps during pre-event testing earlier this week.
