Will Carl Fogarty retire after this really big crash?
I hope he doesn't,it's been a plessure to see him ride.I feel he's going to end his career here,i really hope i'm wrong what do you lot think?
And there comes an other question in mind who's gone replace this legend?

Yes, I think Carl will now retire. He has nothing left to fight for, he has done it all in WSB. There is no Britain likely to step into his boots, so just who will replace him. We will only know after they win four championships! The story goes thet Carl will now help other younger riders.

I don't think Carl will retire after this. It's not his style to retire after a crash (admittedly it wasn't Doohan's either). But Carl will be back and winning again. Though if he wins the championship next then he'll probably retire.

I don't think winning the championship is an option this year,he will be out for at least 2 months the ducs are not that good that they can make up 2 months.I feel Carl will retire at the end of the season.

Oops, that was meant to say : win the championship next year. I don't expect him to win the championship this year either.

He had surgery earlier in the week, and he will be ok. But what he had is not very nice, he broke his arm at the collar bone (if that makes sense). Sort of broken arm and collar bone.
