Anyone got any info on the rider that went down on the downhill during the 250 qualifier on Saturday? He laid there motionless for the entire time before they strapped him into the backboard. Didn't look good.

Wondering the same.

There was also a rider that came up short on the leap and was ejected big time over the bars, wondering how he is?

I think I saw he suffered a broken femur. Looked like his rear wheel exploded on impact which locked his rear tire causing him to endo off the top of the landing. Looked brutal.

GWS to whoever that was.

Talviku came up short on the leap, bounced off the top and crashed.

Broke his femur.

That's a shame he's been riding good recently.

Hopefully makes full recovery.

Worst type of crash there is to get ejected over bars, takes sooooo looong to hit the ground- looked like he was 15' in air

I think it was an Ecuadorian rider who crashed on the downhill in the MX2 quali race
