Man what a drag. Injured at a play date..... http://motocrossactionmag.com/news/sad-news-jeffrey-herlings-injured-waiting-for-x-rays
You beat me to it lol. That really does suck. On a side note, that sounds like a really cool charity ride
For his competitition or lack there-of, thats one way to skin a cat........send him out to goof off on a 85.......just wow...
A possible MX2 championship for a WHT Husky with Febvre ?????..........................or Tixier on the ORG Husky
I like the way you think....though Herlings would have had this thing wrapped up if he hadnt missed races earlier. But ya gotta ride to finish to win !
[Update: 4:26 Eastern] KTM has confirmed that Red Bull KTM's Jeffrey Herlings suffered a broken femur Monday during a crash at Everts and Friends Charity Race. Herlings has already undergone surgery. Below is the official PR from KTM. KTM Racing has confirmed that Red Bull KTM factory rider Jeffrey Herlings has sustained a fractured femur during a crash at the Everts and Friends Charity Race in Genk, Belgium on Monday. Jeffrey was competing in an 85 cc race at the annual charity event hosted by Red Bull KTM Factory Racing MX2 team manager and 10-time world champion Stefan Everts. Jeffrey sustained a clean fracture of the femur and was operated on by Dr. Driessen at the Zol Hospital in Genk on Monday evening. Dr. Driessen inserted a pin to secure the fracture in his left leg and the medical staff have advised that the operation was completely successful. They expect him to be in hospital for about three days. Pit Beirer, Head of KTM Motorsport said Jeffrey’s job was now to rest and recuperate. “Jeffery is young and very fit and while we are all sorry that he has had this bad luck, we’re confident that he will come back and be as strong as he has already shown us he can be. We wish him a speedy recovery and look forward to having him back on the bike when he is fit and well.”
Major bummer. I was really looking forward to seeing how he would match up against the riders in our series.
The GP is much more entertaining now. Not that I'm happy he's out - I'm certainly not. We're now seeing some battling out there for 1's and 2's which we weren't seeing before.
me too !! I was hoping to see how he did he hauls and never slows down no matter what lead he has he just keeps it pinned until the race is over.
FYI, I wont be doing this years Unadilla Nat either my wrist still is not 100%, so its best to remain on injured reserve for now...........
That's Ok Red Bull is just holding your checks until you return then they will send them to you. Later George
