Yeah....broken ribs, pneumothorax, broken pelb=vis and sacrum. he is gonna be on the mend for awhile. Dude is actually "lucky" he hit the car....otherwise he would have launched off the road and likely hit a tree.

Just say "NO!" to WCP!!!!

No joke. He was flying in hot! What's with the dumb arse on the moto that stopped right in the road that caused two more to go down? Doesn't anyone have situational awareness anymore? That was just ignorant.

Probably would have been a few more crashes, the fans had enough sense to warn the following peloton to slow down.....

i wonder if he was having brake problems. he was coming in to the corner way faster than everyone else.

How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.

Yeah, the speed was ridiculous, regardless of if there was a car there or not. There was no way he was going to make that turn. I thought I saw the brakes lock up though, right before impact. N
