Well he hasn't been setting the world on fire so far this year, and now he's injured while practicing ...

On the landing of a jump, his front wheel hit a soft spot of ground which stopped the bike, sending him over the bars with his bike landing on top of him.
He was immediately checked by local motocross specialist Dr. Claes and, after initial inspections determined that the fracture appeared stable, Gautier was permitted to return home. He will continue to see his local specialist in the coming days to continue the assessment of his condition and road to recovery.
Updates will be provided on his recovery and once a target MXGP return date is set.
Hope he's back up and racing soon>
The times Paulin is 100% fit and 100% confident in the bike is so rare.
But when he's on, he's on. The times he can perform to 100% is so cool to watch. MXdN in Kegums was probably the last time we saw that. Although you could argue for the win in Valkenswaard last year also.

Man what a bummer for Paulin to get injured again .. The dude can FLY but looks like he never gets back to full health .. His Valkenswaard win last year was almost magic how fast he was going ..
I have no clue what's wrong with him. He has the fitness but somehow just lacks the speed. He's been a different rider on the Honda so far. However the bike doesn't seem to be as bad, works for Gajser and Bobby.
Hopefully he will find something working for him next year and we will see the pre 2015 Paulin back.
