A BROKEN HAND FOR SHAUN SIMPSON IN THE GP OF LATVIA

Shaun Simpson di Wilvo Yamaha ha rotto la sua mano nella seconda manche del GP in Lettonia. Simpson ha finito quarto nella prima manche ma ha perso il controllo sulla sua Yamaha nella seconda gara.
Si è schiantato nell’oscurità ingannevole e ha colpito un palo con la mano destra. Simpson ha fratturato la mano nella caduta e avrà un intervento chirurgico la prossima settimana.Auguriamo a Shaun un rapido recupero e speriamo di rivederlo presto!

Di seguito il messaggio via social.
 
Shaun Simpson: Il Gran Premio di Lettonia si è svolto sul circuito veloce, leggermente sabbioso e molto sconnesso di Kegums per quello che era il settimo round di diciannove nel 2017 MXGP. Shaun ha lavorato bene con la sua squadra Wilvo Yamaha e il lavoro di test positivo sulla YZ450F. Un inizio decente vede lo scozzese con i leader nella prima manche la domenica e ha spinto duro sino alla bandiera a scacchi; Solo non riuscendo a recuperare Evgeny Bobryshev al quarto posto per tre decimi di secondo. Ottimista per colpire il suo obiettivo per un risultato generale Shaun si è avvicinato alla seconda corsa con entusiasmo: si è rapidamente fermato con un incidente.
 
“Sono stato felice dopo la prima gara, ma durante la seconda ho colpito una zona bagnata di sabbia attraverso le wave dopo la pitlane e mi ha mandato fuori dalla pista. Mi sono scontrato con una delle parti non protette di un supporto elettrico e ho fratturato la mia mano su un paletto metallico. Pensavo di aver rotto il mio polso. Siamo andati per scansioni e controlli e ho rotto il metacarpo, ma per fortuna sembro non aver subito alcun danno al polso. È un modo incredibile per finire il fine settimana. “
 
Shaun ha un volo in Belgio lunedì mattina e si prevede che avrà un intervento chirurgico per riparare la frattura con l’inserimento di un perno e poi il periodo di convalescenza. Spera di tornare al Grand Prix nel più breve tempo possibile, ma ha già ripetuto la sua voglia di correre nuovamente in piena forma, avendo sofferto con una lesione simile alla sua mano destra la scorsa estate.

After a superb first moto display in which he narrowly missed third position, Shaun was counted out of the second race at Kegums with a broken left hand… The Grand Prix of Latvia took place on the fast, slightly sandy and very bumpy Kegums circuit for what was round seven of nineteen in 2017 MXGP. Shaun pulled into the ample paddock space with his Wilvo Yamaha team fresh after more – and positive testing work – on the YZ450F. A decent start volleyed the Scot up with the leaders in the first moto on Sunday and he pushed hard to the chequered flag; just failing to relegate Honda’s Evgeny Bobryshev to fourth place by three tenths of a second. Optimistic of hitting his goal for a top six result in the overall classification Shaun approached the second race with enthusiasm: it swiftly came to a halt with a freak accident. “I was happy after the first race but during the second I hit a wet patch of sand through the waves after the pitlane and it sent me off the track. I collided with one of the unprotected parts of an electricity stand and smacked my hand on a metal post. I thought I had busted my wrist. We went for scans and checks and I have broken the middle metacarpal but thankfully seem to have not sustained any damage to the wrist or radius. It is an unbelievable way to end the weekend.” Shaun has a flight to Belgium from Riga first thing Monday morning and is expected to have surgery to repair the fracture with the insertion of a pin and then the expected convalescence period. He is hoping to be back in Grand Prix action as soon as possible but has already iterated his desire to race again when fully fit, having suffered frustration with a similar injury to his right hand last summer. Check Shaun’s social media channels for further updates this week.
