Damn, I'm sorry for David and sorry for Italy's MXDN chances. Always something.
This the problem with these small countries like Italy - it's almost impossible to field 3 good riders, or now in this case, 2.

Dobermann- that's just an expression here in the US. It's like saying "damn" or something.

He is not making any comments about the guy's mother.

(Now that I think about it- I have no idea why we use this phrase to express shock or disappointment.)

1707 as a direct phrase, but implied much earlier.
Franklin Roosevelt talking about Nicaraguan dictator Anastasio Somoza in 1939 is the one who started the quote here in the USA....and i guess sorta got it popular.

They would if they had Guarneri on a 250f though. They really need to drop the U23 rule for that race, its killing it.

They should definitely drop the age rule for the MXdN.

i think that rule makes sense, the problem in italy is that they lost quality in their youth racing and it has been a long time since we have seen good young italian racers......
it is odd since ther are a lot of world class teams based in italy and it has been a country full of tradition in racing.....but then again when federations care more about wich sponsors go in the team jerseys then the results the team could get.....its show how the sport is run there....
a lot of countries in europe have oficial youth teams to help develop their riders, others get support from their federation to race internationally, france is the biggest exemple how it should be done, looks like its time for italians to wake up and catch up.......

get well soon david...!!!!!!!!!!

yep its makes it even harder for small countries.. because in many cases their three best riders are over 23.

Hopefully Guaneri can step up, he hasn't been riding too bad this year and is good on hard pack. Gutted for Philippearts though, he gives it 110% at the nations and is great to watch, I will never forget his ride in 2009 in italy, and unlike many of the other riders isn't in awe of the Americans!

It will move Pourcel up two spots though this weekend! lol

Kevin Strijbos to fill in for Ramon on factory Suzuki, he still has the stuff to run at the front, and is now back with the team that took him to runner up in MX1 twice... and he loves Loket.

From MXA -

Suzuki's GP team will count on the services of former team rider Kevin Strijbos for the remaining four rounds of the FIM MX1 World Championship after the injury to Steve Ramon at Lommel last Saturday. Strijbos will make a timely return to the factory team on the RM-Z450 at Loket this weekend for the Grand Prix of Czech Republic and round 12 of 15 in the series. It was at the hard-pack and fast course in 2005 that Strijbos gave the works machine its very first overall GP victory. Strijbos has a long association with the team and also Suzuki (four years with GRP) and was the perfect candidate to help fill the awning next to Clement Desalle for the remaining GP events in Czech Republic, UK, Germany and Italy. With Ramon's blessing, Strijbos was able to test the bike Tuesday and will again represent the Belgian crew after twice finishing as World Championship runner-up while wearing its colors.

"This is a great opportunity for me," said Kevin. "I've had a few bad weekends this season and also some other problems and this is a fantastic chance to show that I can still produce the goods, so I want to thank the team for picking me. I went to the workshop in Lommel yesterday and everything was exactly like it was before. Nothing had changed and it was like coming home. I hope I can repay some of the faith this weekend."

I like his attitude. All the best to Kevin.

Exactly.....sorry for the confusion. I could have put "God damn it!" ( which was my original thought when I hear about a rider getting hurt )......but even with that saying , it can even open a bigger can of worms. It's just been a terrible month for injuries and even worse and it just bums me out even hearing about it.

Poor David. His year went from bad to worse (sans Brazil). Poor Italy. I really felt like Lupino could get a top 15 and get them a podium in France.

This sux. But there's still 6 weeks left, and bones can heal faster at times than that, maybe they even put a plate in which means he can have movement right away. This is the optimistic part of me talking of course... Sad

I hope Cairoli stays healthy though, and don't screw up in the start so we can have a real battle for the sake of the bench racing! Smile

I guess Cairoli, Guarneri and one of the 2 talented youngsters Bernardini or Zecchina will fill the Italian Mxdn team ?

Just posted the Yamaha PR, sounds like he didnt even crash? Does anyone know the details? He must of hit pretty damn hard to break BOTH wrists!

"Monster Energy Yamaha rider David Philippaerts is likely to miss the rest of the 2011 FIM Motocross World Championship after crashing during training yesterday (Wednesday) at a track in Germany in preparation for the Grand Prix of Czech Republic this weekend. The 2008 MX1-GP world champion has broken both wrists. The 27 year old Italian underwent surgery for several hours Wednesday evening.

The accident happened when the winner of this season’s Brazilian Grand Prix landed heavily from a double jump and suffered intense pain, with his hands feeling the brunt of the impact. More information about the surgery and expected recovery time will be issued shortly."
