really thought about.
"To come to Cardiff and have
a win is unbelievable. I have
always wanted to win here, so
it's ideal. I was third here before
in 2012, so today I've stepped up
a bit."
Lindback was quick to pay
tribute to runner-up Woffinden
after a good, clean fight for the
top spot.
"For me, it's great if I can beat
Tai. He's so fast and I just love to
race with him," Lindback stated.
"I love racing him on the track
and I like him outside the track.
It was good fun.
Although the racing was
tense, Lindback maintains he
and Woffinden kept it clean.
"I don't feel you need to run
into people. Me and Tai raced
hard but we didn't hit each other.
It was still nice for the crowd to
look at. I like racing with him.
You feel safe, but you can also
race hard."
Woffinden admits picking the
wrong engine early in the meet-
ing hampered his chances. But
he was elated with second place
and a thunderous ovation from
the Cardiff crowd.
"I changed bikes and when I
jumped on it, it was pulling, so
thanks to Johnsy (engine tuner
Peter Johns) for building me
such a fast motor," said Woffin-
den.
"I wish I'd raced it earlier. It's
the one I have been riding in Po-
land and scoring massive points
on, so maybe I need to start
riding it in the GP. I always tend
to go for a different one.
"It was a good night and the
fans here were amazing, as
they always are. It blows my
mind when I come here. I can't
explain how it feels to be a Brit-
ish rider and ride in front of that
many people shouting for me.
It's crazy."
