Are you kidding me? Ask 99% of top retired pros what their biggest regret was during racing, and they will probably say not doing ENOUGH of these races. They make serious dough to race these races.

Wow that was a direct hit.
I have to say that looked like a perfect time to have on a neck brace.

Did you get it from Justin's doctor's brother-in-law's caterer?

Get well soon Justin.

Looking at the slo mo vid that crush put up, it seems that if JB had got up a second later, his head would of been toast but it kind of just pushed his head back down rather than snap it back. Still a really nasty crash. Hope JB has a speedy recovery and its nothing major.

From Justin's Twitter account.

"Two bruised lungs sore neck and back and some air in my chest have to stay in intensive care for the night hopefully can get out tomorrow."

That is great to read! Super glad to hear it wasn't as bad as it looked (err... I mean, as bad as people were speculating).

Wow that was gnarly. That was so so close to being VERY bad Shocked

I wouldn't be surprised if he separated his AC joint. That was a direct blow on his left shoulder.

Edit: seems like he's alright. Scary crash

Yeah it sucks, but it could have been way worse. Everyone knows these guys are tuff, but we don't want to see any of them get hurt.
WFO!

Agreed.

And thats how it usually happens. A nothing race in the off season and the riders career is ended.

Incidentally, Barcias bike/setup looked horrible.
