Josh Brookes seriously hurt
I was driving to work last night and was flipping through the radio stations and caught the end of a story about Josh Brookes.
Josh unfortunately was caught up in a serious accident at Wanaroo raceway in Western Australia yesterday. I honestly dont know his full condition as I didnt catch the entire story. Does anyone have any updates on his condition or what actually happened ? For people outside of Australia you may recall Josh winning the supersport race at Phillip island earlier this year when the world championship visited there. a superb rider with bagfulls of talent. I hope he gets better soon. |

Should start with the good news I guess, Josh is going to be OK, He sustained a broken pelvis and could be in hospital in WA for up to eight weeks. He will make a full recovery and will hopefully be riding again by the end of the year. He has praised the medical staff and recovery staff at the circuit for there instant response to his crash. Hope he gets well soon. The series will miss his talent.

That's a real shame. Hopefully he can recover as quickly as Yukio Kagayama, the Japanese rider who races in British Superbikes.
