WTF? It's a miracle he won the championship. His wrist will sideline him for Nationals.
He deserves to take the summer off before he starts his 450 campaign in 2017. As Stewart would say "it is a blessing in the skys".

He does deserve it but we'll miss him on the MXON team. The guy was a pillar of the team and would be even more seasoned this year.

Hell of a ride to do what he needed to do to bring another title home. He's the real deal.

So was Ricky Johnson, let's hope that's where this similarity ends!

Hopeful for a strong recovery.

Coop dug deep and earned every bit of that title. I also like the respect that Joey Savatgy gave Webb on the podium too. I think there will be more good things to come from both of these 2 guys down the road. Both riders earned a lot of respect last night for sure.

Did mine twice the first time with really no pain but as said it never healed and did it again, needed the surgery and a screw. 10 months later and it is finally coming around post surgery but like others there's no rearward movement what so ever. Unsure of what kind of pain coops in but a stud to pull it off anyways.

Hard fought last race, he must have been under immense pressure.
Cooper, time to start supplementing tripeptide collagen. It'll help the bones heal.

I think this expression says a lot about how he was feeling afterwards.

As I'm watching the last few laps I see that Savatgy could actually lap Webb, Webb was something like 75 sec behind and next guy on the track for Savatgy to lap, Savatgy had been putting in laps around 1:25, when Webb was putting in laps over 1:30, but then Savatgy slowed down and managed the lead, finally letting Oldenburg unlap himself, probably hoping maybe Webb would tip over on last lap and Oldenburg would get the spot.
I was thinking about Savatgy charge after Webb and while lapping him giving him a little tap, on that track you don't need much to tip over and lose a couple of positions.
Would you blame Savatgy for doing so, would you have done the same thing given the oportunity and championship on the line?
I think I would go for it, not to put the other guy down hard but taking his line away in a corner and if the other guy pulls over to let you by, you just lapped the guy who you lost the championship to.

And I have also broken my navicular in my right wrist over 10 years ago, worst injury I have had when it comes to motocross, it doesnt affect everiday life so much but heals wery long and I had surgery on it and I have 50% less movement in my right wrist, but fortunately no pain.
