Man some people just can't catch a break! So gutted for Shaun in his first race back after his hand injury...
This was his triumphant return to the FIM MXGP World championship... and he crashed out on the start of the first turn, and in pretty spectacular fashion. The pile up was nasty taking down Febvre, Lupino, Boulard & few others. Shaun managed to limp off the track but after being seen by the medical crew it was confirmed he has sustained a fractured arm and elbow. As with any injury of this scale there will be no return date until after he has undergone surgery and started physio but its a huge blow which should keep him sidelined until August at the very least.
Check out Shauns nasty crash on GoPro
I hate seeing bad luck like this to such a promising rider, there is nothing that can prepare you for freak accidents like this its just the nature of the sport. All we can do is wish Shaun a speedy recovery and i look forward to seeing him back to full health as soon as possible.
Full MXGP Italy race report and videos to come soon guys!
Oh gosh...hope he is ok @b0y2k pls send in my regards. Love this bke sports however its dangerous. Before he hurt hinself badly, better sign him up here at steemit where he will make safe money like you @b0y2k and still enjoy himself without taking risks...thank goodness steemit is here as a very good alternative. Good post and be safe
There is no way either of us will sit here and not ride again :)
Haha Adrenalin junkies in action keeping it real!!!! with this spirit, then join me to turn steem plus steemit to a rocket and power it up to the skies. A win win ride for all of us. My only wish is that you all remain safe.
I hope he is good as new as soon as possible!
All for one, one for all!
100% applied!

Looks bad :(

Bike enthusiast love it

This is the part of game
Nice one @cryptocharts, glad to have you here mate.
MX riders are like cats, they heal their wounds and get back on their feet. back to training, back to battle. Injuries can be considered when you do your carrier planning.
Mistakes happen. This one was still in the comfort zone.
Take a lickin and keep on kickin!
They know the risks and still decide to continue, nobody forces them back onto a bike.
They are made of tough stuff :)
Well, it´s feels like an amputation, if you take the wheels away.
Thanks for the update, it's a dangerous sport but hopefully he recovers quickly 😀
It can be @hotandrandom, harsh for Shaun on his comeback race...
Amazing ! Thanx for the nice post
keep racing keep Steeming, SteemOn
Resteemed Upvt, Cheers buddy
haha nice one @moneymaster :)
damn that is a nasty crash! I hope he will recover as soon as possible...
Yeah, it was a big one alright...
That's too bad to hear about Shaun, he was doing so good! I guess you can't control those kinds of things. I know he'll be back better and stronger next time in August. Can't wait!
We can rebuild him... :D
This is not good news, hopefully he will recover soon .
No its not mate, he will get good care now though.
I think they are very brave. and I hope that Shaun Simpson recover his injury.
thank you for video.
Yes these guys are fearless behind the handlebars!
Thaks for sharing, yeah ,few of my friends also motorcycling ,I sometime wondering, how its possible . 😉 very difficult and hard sports. Cheers
All Motorsport carries dangers but they ride with passion.
Thats true for sure, adrenaline also ,theu are chasin it 😉
There is a lot of dirt out there! Nice to see you arround!!!
our view was better than Shauns thats for sure....
😀
oh noooo
that made me angry
Sorry @hatemmkh...
Looks like he got back on the bike a bit too soon. Hope he will recover offcourse.
I think he was ready just got caught in the pack and knocked off course.
The most important thing is to have a good relationship with the bike... you have to understand what she wants. I think of a motorcycle as a woman, and I know that sounds silly, but it's true. Thanks @b0y2k
Not silly at all :)
My girl (Katie M haha) is well looked after, then in turn she looks after me :)
Gopros are handy. Thats a sad vid tough. Great article othervice. upv
