Hmmmh. Sure hope this is one of those injuries that you can ride with and let them heal at the same time. I doubt it thought doesn't sound all that good. Hopefully he'll get the green light for the next GP this weekend. For sure deserves to stay in the hunt for the title after last GP effort to salvage points.

I am gonna go out on a limb and predict he will not win the title this year. Lol....I feel for the guy, but the ride he put In last weekend will be all for not. The only way he can win the title now is If every other top contender breaks something.

He is one tough mother f***er. How can you not admire and respect him.

You got that right. Not many would attempt to race if their hand looked like this.

I can't even imagine trying to hold onto a 450 at my speed with injuries like that, let alone riding at the speeds AC had to ride to finish where he did. The guy is a machine. I'm very impressed.

He's a tough dude for sure; that was a hell of ride last week. I'd hate to see this take him out for the season.

OK TC is a bad dude but people getting on here and saying not many would ride if there hand was that bad. i'll go out on a limb (pardon the pun) and say probably the majority of people who race would of raced with that hand i mean lets really think about it, become a world champion and MOST IMPORTANTLY collect probably over a million euro in bonuses.

All this makes me think that if only just RV had ben taken his time to ajust, a couple of 4th 3th and 5th. He would very likely be in a good place for a title his first year.. Only nagl left though.. I wonder if RV regrets his aproch to this year MXGP?

thing is these injuries can happen at any time....to anybody we all know that, the series is still live and kicking imo - oh and in case nobody noticed we have a new bull in the pen. RV in or out makes no odds and taking his time is probably not in his vocabulary Wink
This is the 1st time i can remember in so damn long that AC has had to suffer a mid season injury that may affect his chances, he has been so consistent for so long although i wouldn't write him off just yet ladies Evil

try maybe.
But he was in the top 5 for almost half of the race and eventually finished in 7th.

it was hardly the most forgiving circuit either, pretty bloody gnarly by all accounts

Duct tape the hands onto the grips and get it on.
